Genetic variability in COVID-19-related genes in the Brazilian population

2020-12-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> SARS-CoV-2 employs the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor and the transmembrane serine protease (TMPRSS2) to infect human lung cells. Previous studies have suggested that different host genetic backgrounds in ACE2 and TMPRSS2 could contribute to differences in the rate of infection or severity of COVID-19. Recent studies also showed that variants in 15 genes related to type I inte...
