Alu retrotransposons and COVID-19 susceptibility and morbidity.

Human genomics - 4 Jan 2021

Li Manci, Schifanella Luca, Larsen Peter A

Abstract excerpt

SARS-CoV-2 has spread rapidly across the world and is negatively impacting the global human population. COVID-19 patients display a wide variety of symptoms and clinical outcomes, including those attributed to genetic ancestry. Alu retrotransposons have played an important role in human evolution, and their variants influence host response to viral infection. Intronic Alus regulate gene expression through several...
