Differential methylation as a mediator of COVID-19 susceptibility

2020-08-14

Abstract excerpt

The COVID-19 outbreak shows a huge variation in prevalence and mortality on geographical level but also within populations 1 . The ACE2 gene, identified as the SARS-CoV2 receptor, has been shown to facilitate the viral invasion and people with higher ACE2 expression generally are more severely affected 2, 3 . As there is a lot of variability in ACE2 expression between individuals we hypothesized that differen...
