ACE2 and infection: Interestingly, based on our CoV consensome analysis, ACE2 is more consistently transcriptionally responsive to infection by SARS CoVs (SARS1: 98th percentile, consensome q value (CQV)10 = 1e-25; SARS2: 97th percentile, CQV = 4e-7) than by IAV (78th percentile, CQV = 3e-8) or MERS (49th percentile, CQV = 2e-16; figshare File F1, sections 2–5).
