LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of DPA to 10-nonadecenoate reflects FADS desaturase activity; a higher ratio indicates greater conversion of precursors to long-chain polyunsaturated n-3 fatty acids.1[1], 6[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation in FADS1/FADS2 alters desaturase activity, influencing the balance of n-3 and n-9 fatty acids.1[1], 6[2] This altered lipid profile is linked to inflammation and metabolic disturbances underlying phenotypes like dyslipidaemia, asthma, and cardiovascular disease.1[3], 5[4], 7[5], 8[6], 9[7]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
