Carbohydrate sulfotransferase 6 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CHST6 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Vance JM, Jonasson F, Lennon F, Sarrica J, Damji KF, Stauffer J, Pericak-Vance MA, Klintworth GK | title = Linkage of a gene for macular corneal dystrophy to chromosome 16 | journal = Am J Hum Genet | volume = 58 | issue = 4 | pages = 757–62 |date=Jul 1996 | pmid = 8644739 | pmc = 1914688 }}{{cite journal | vauthors = Akama TO, Nishida K, Nakayama J, Watanabe H, Ozaki K, Nakamura T, Dota A, Kawasaki S, Inoue Y, Maeda N, Yamamoto S, Fujiwara T, Thonar EJ, Shimomura Y, Kinoshita S, Tanigami A, Fukuda MN | title = Macular corneal dystrophy type I and type II are caused by distinct mutations in a new sulphotransferase gene | journal = Nat Genet | volume = 26 | issue = 2 | pages = 237–41 |date=Nov 2000 | pmid = 11017086 | doi = 10.1038/79987 | s2cid = 25547752 }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: CHST6 carbohydrate (N-acetylglucosamine 6-O) sulfotransferase 6| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=4166}}

It codes for an enzyme necessary for the production of keratan sulfate. Mutations in the gene lead to macular corneal dystrophy.
