Schematic illustration of the genomic organization of ACE2 and positions of the studied SNP loci. ACE2 contains 18 exons. Each exon is represented by an open box. The arrows mark the positions of the five verified SNPs. All five SNPs are located within noncoding regions of ACE2. The individual SNPs are named according to their identification numbers registered at the SNP database (dbSNP) (15).
