UQCRC2P1 and COVID-19: On the other hand, we confirmed another variant in 3p21.31, rs71327056, which is an intergenic variant between UQCRC2P1 and CCR2 genes and is not linkage disequilibrium (LD) with rs11385942 (Ellinghaus et al., 2020) (1000 Genomes Project CEU, r2 = 0.19), suggesting there might be more than one independent variant in 3p21.31 contribution to COVID-19 susceptibility and severity.
