Genes affected
CHST6 (HGNC:6938): (carbohydrate sulfotransferase 6) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a sulfate group to the GlcNAc residues of keratan. Keratan sulfate helps maintain corneal transparency. Defects in this gene are a cause of macular corneal dystrophy (MCD). [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 276 of the CHST6 protein (p.Leu276Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs121917824, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with macular corneal dystrophy (PMID: 15013869, 16207214, 16568029). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as c.1519T>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5078). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CHST6 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
