Regulation of the <i>ACE2</i> locus in human airways cells
2020-10-05
Abstract excerpt
The angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor is the gateway for SARS-CoV-2 to airway epithelium 1,2 and the strong inflammatory response after viral infection is a hallmark in COVID-19 patients. Deciphering the regulation of the ACE2 gene is paramount for understanding the cell tropism of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Here we identify candidate regulatory elements in the ACE2 locus in human primary airway cells a...
