    Snippet: We note here that the ACE2 gene is located on the X-chromosome; human males are 77 hemizygous for the gene, expressing only one haplotype from their maternally-derived allele. Females, 78 by contrast, have two X chromosomes and generally express both their paternal and maternal alleles in 79 a mosaic distribution that is determined by early X-inactivation. Since we have prior knowledge that 80 the ACE2 protein is bound directly by the viral S pro.....

Since we have prior knowledge that 80 the ACE2 protein is bound directly by the viral S protein, and since prior protein-protein interaction 81 modelling has identified specific amino acid residues within ACE2 that are bound directly by SARS-82
