LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid and amino acid catabolism.9[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Lysine metabolism, gut microbiota-dependent pathway.10[1], 11[2]

Ratio Explanation:

An SLC22A1 variant could differentially affect transport of propionylcarnitine and N,N,N-trimethyl-5-aminovalerate, which is known to inhibit carnitine synthesis, thus altering their systemic ratio.12[1], 13[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered SLC22A1 function affects carnitine homeostasis, impacting fatty acid oxidation.12[1], 14[2], 15[3], 16[4] This disruption of lipid processing likely contributes to the observed phenotypes of disordered lipoprotein metabolism, including altered triglycerides and total cholesterol.14[5], 17[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A1
