LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of 10-heptadecenoate (17:1n7) to pentadecanoate (15:0) reflects the enzymatic activity of Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase (SCD), converting the saturated fatty acid to a monounsaturated one.2[1], 3[2], 4[3]

Ratio Evidence:

canonical reaction catalyzed by the enzyme

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered SCD activity, indicated by the fatty acid ratio, is associated with dyslipidemia and increased risk of coronary atherosclerosis.5[1], 6[2], 7[3] Genetic variants in SCD are linked to changes in cholesterol levels and coronary artery disease risk.8[4], 5[5] The associated phenotypes like hypercholesterolemia and myocardial infarction reflect disruptions in lipid metabolism where SCD plays a crucial role.9[6], 10[7]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SCD
