Abstract
COVID-19, similarly to systemic autoimmune diseases, is characterised by the presence of autoantibodies. Authors show here that the abundance and network signature of autoantibodies targeting G protein-coupled receptors and RAS-related proteins are altered in COVID-19 patients, and the level of disruption marks clinical severity.
