Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 85,787 European ancestry individuals, 6,568 Indian Asian ancestry indiviudals; replicated in 88,823 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.612 higher (95% confidence interval 0.48-0.75); p = 4 × 10⁻²⁶.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 12% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q32.2 — in an intron of CD46.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2018-11-10. ClinVar record 1289553 NM_172351.3(CD46):c.857-271T>A

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Heart rate. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Heart rate. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Heart rate. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11118555

What is rs11118555?

rs11118555 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CD46 gene. Published research associates it with heart rate. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11118555 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Resting Heart Rate. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs11118555 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs11118555 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:23583979. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
