rs1800955, also known as C-521T and -521C/T, is a variant in the promoter region upstream of the DRD4 gene on chromosome 11.

g2b2mh blog C allele of rs1800955 DRD4 gene 10.1016/j.biopsych.2007.04.006 survives an analysis of several dozen studies on genetics and personality. Although small, the evidence from the final meta-analysis indicates that the C-521T may account for up to 3% of phenotypic variance. [PMID 17574217]

rs1800955 and rs1800443 are discussed in this article in the Atlantic Magazine as influencing personality.
