Identifying severe COVID-19 risk variants modulating enhancer reporter activity in lung cells

2026-02-26

Abstract excerpt

Common genetic variants contribute to risk for complex human diseases. However, despite thousands of associations, variants modulating disease risk and their functional impact remain largely unknown. This includes SARS-CoV-2 infection, where outcomes range from asymptomatic to fatal. Most host risk variants associated with COVID-19 disease, identified through genome wide association studies, are located in the non...
