Multi-ancestry fine mapping implicates OAS1 splicing in risk of severe COVID-19

TL;DR: In this paper , the OAS1/2/3 cluster was identified as a risk locus for severe COVID-19 among individuals of European ancestry, with a protective haplotype of approximately 75 kilobases (kb) derived from Neanderthals in the chromosomal region 12q24.13.

Pan-ancestry exome-wide association analyses of COVID-19 outcomes in 586,157 individuals

Jack A. Kosmicki, +80 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used exome sequence data to investigate associations between rare genetic variants and seven COVID-19 outcomes in 586,157 individuals, including 20,952 with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), a respiratory illness causing hospitalization or death.

Rare loss-of-function variants in type I IFN immunity genes are not associated with severe COVID-19

TL;DR: In this article, rare predicted loss-of-function (pLOF) variants across 13 candidate genes in TLR3- and IRF7-dependent type I IFN pathways explain up to 3.5% of severe COVID-19 cases.
