To systematically investigate the candidate functional coding variants in ACE2 and the allele frequency (AF) differences between populations, we analyzed all the 1700 variants (Supplementary Table S1) in ACE2 gene region from the ChinaMAP (China Metabolic Analytics Project, under reviewing) and 1KGP (1000 Genomes Project)9 databases. The AFs of 62 variants located in the coding regions of ACE2 in ChinaMAP, 1KGP, and other large-scale genome databases were summarized (Supplementary Table S2). All of the 32 variants potentially affecting the amino acid sequence of ACE2 in databases were shown (Fig. 1a)
