Insights into genetic factors contributing to variability in SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility and COVID-19 disease severity

2021-05-12

Abstract excerpt

Variability in SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility and COVID-19 disease severity between individuals is partly due to genetic factors. Here, we applied colocalization to compare summary statistics for 16 GWASs from the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative to investigate similarities and differences in their genetic signals. We identified 9 loci associated with susceptibility (one with two independent GWAS signals; one with an...
