Genotype and Haplotype Analysis With In Silico Prediction of TMPRSS2 Gene in Jordanian Population
This research provides information about the gene structure of the TMPRSS2 binding domain in Jordanians. Some of the identified variants, especially c.923T > A, may influence protein function, warranting further in vitro and in vivo investigations. In addition, further clinical research studies are needed to link the identified TMPRSS2 variants with COVID-19 susceptibility and severity among Jordanians.
