LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Urea cycle, Arginine and proline metabolism

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycine metabolism, acetyl-CoA metabolism11[1], 12[2], 13[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may reflect altered CPS1 activity, impacting the urea cycle (homoarginine) and acetyl-CoA metabolism (N-acetylglycine), but a direct enzymatic link is not established.14[1], 15[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced CPS1 function due to genetic variation could lead to urea cycle dysregulation, affecting homoarginine levels, and potentially contributing to renal dysfunction and cholelithiasis, phenotypes where altered nitrogen metabolism is implicated.1[1], 2[2], 16[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:CPS1
