Intronic Variants of the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 Gene Modulate Plasma ACE2 Levels and Possibly Confer Protection against Severe COVID-19

<div>Variants of the <i>ACE2</i> gene identified by WES and their number of occurrences in samples of different disease severity classes. The size of the circle and shade of blue represent the number of occurrences. A larger circle and a darker shade of blue indicate a greater number of occurrences.</div>
