Regulatory Noncoding and Predicted Pathogenic Coding Variants of <i>CCR5</i> Predispose to Severe COVID-19

Regulatory Noncoding and Predicted Pathogenic Coding Variants of <i>CCR5</i> Predispose to Severe COVID-19

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) found locus 3p21.31 associated with severe COVID-19. <i>CCR5</i> resides at the same locus and, given its known biological role in other infection diseases, we investigated if common noncoding and rare coding variants, affecting <i>CCR5</i&...
