h1n9, Transmembrane serine protease 2 Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Type 2 Infection: A German Case-Control Study

Transmembrane serine protease 2 Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Type 2 Infection: A German Case-Control Study

The transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) is the foremost host protease that allows entry of the extreme acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus kind 2 (SARS-CoV-2) into host cells by spike (S) protein priming. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the gene TMPRSS2 have been related to susceptibility to and severity of H1N1 or H1N9 influenza A virus infections. Purposeful variants could…

Establishment of a specimen panel for the decentralised technical evaluation of the sensitivity of 31 rapid diagnostic tests for SARS-CoV-2 antigen, Germany, September 2020 to April 2021

IntroductionThe detection of SARS-CoV-2 with speedy diagnostic checks (RDT) has grow to be an essential device to establish contaminated individuals and break an infection chains. These RDT are often primarily based on antigen detection in a lateral circulation strategy. AimWe aimed to determine a complete specimen panel for the decentralised technical analysis of SARS-CoV-2 antigen…
