UnknownShaping current European mitochondrial haplogroup frequency in response to infection: the case of SARS-CoV-2 severity.
The frequency of mitochondrial DNA haplogroups (mtDNA-HG) in humans is known to be shaped by migration and repopulation. Mounting evidence indicates that mtDNA-HG are not phenotypically neutral, and selection may contribute to its distribution. Haplogroup H, the most abundant in Europe, improved sur...
