Clinical population genetic analysis of variants in the SARS-CoV-2 receptor ACE2

2020-05-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose</h4> SARS-CoV-2 infects cells via the human Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) protein. The genetic variation of ACE2 function and expression across populations is still poorly understood. This study aims at better understanding the genetic basis of COVID-19 outcomes by studying association between genetic variation in ACE2 and disease severity in the Iranian population. <h4>Methods</h4> We analyze...
