About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_0843
Species: human
Position : chrX:15491850-15493850
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: New crown
Pubmed ID:  33251489
Enhancer experiment: RNA SEQ, immunohistochemistry, supplementary figures
Enhancer experiment description: To test whether the olfactory neuroepithelium may represent a target of the virus, we generated RNA-seq libraries from human olfactory neuroepithelia, in which we found substantial expression of the genes coding for the virus receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) and for the virus internalization enhancer TMPRSS2.

About Target gene

Target gene : ACE2
Strong evidence: qRT-PCR,qPCR,ChIP,3C
Less strong evidence: RNA-Seq
Target gene experiment description: To test whether the olfactory neuroepithelium may represent a target of the virus, we generated RNA-seq libraries from human olfactory neuroepithelia, in which we found substantial expression of the genes coding for the virus receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) and for the virus internalization enhancer TMPRSS2.

About Function

Enhancer function : To test whether the olfactory neuroepithelium may represent a target of the virus, we generated RNA-seq libraries from human olfactory neuroepithelia, in which we found substantial expression of the genes coding for the virus receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) and for the virus internalization enhancer TMPRSS2.
