pubmed:abstractText |
Macular corneal dystrophy (MCD) is an autosomal recessive disorder leading to severe visual impairment. The carbohydrate sulfotransferase 6 (CHST6) gene, which encodes the corneal N-acetylglucosamine 6-O-sulfotransferase on 16q22 has been identified as a causative gene for MCD. The purpose of this study was to identify mutations in CHST6 in Japanese patients with MCD and evaluate them by means of immunohistochemistry.
