Human-SARS-CoV-2 interactome and human genetic diversity: TMPRSS2-rs2070788, associated with severe influenza, and its population genetics caveats in Native Americans

Human-SARS-CoV-2 interactome and human genetic diversity: TMPRSS2-rs2070788, associated with severe influenza, and its population genetics caveats in Native Americans

For human/SARS-CoV-2 interactome genes ACE2, TMPRSS2 and BSG, there’s a convincing proof of affiliation in Asians with influenza-induced SARS for TMPRSS2-rs2070788, tag-SNP of the eQTL rs383510. This case illustrates the significance of inhabitants genetics and of sequencing knowledge within the design of genetic affiliation research in several human populations: the excessive linkage disequilibrium (LD) between…
