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]
CHST6 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-75479552-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 5079.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 12 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -0.89985 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -1.6448 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to macular corneal dystrophy.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986

Variant summary: CHST6 c.277C>T (p.Arg93Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Sulfotransferase domain (IPR000863) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 249296 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.277C>T in individuals affected with Macular Corneal Dystrophy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
