LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid omega-oxidation.7[1], 8[2], 9[3], 10[4]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis and beta-oxidation.11[1], 12[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the activity of omega-oxidation (producing hexadecanedioate) relative to the general saturated fatty acid pool, a process influenced by CYP4F2.4[1], 5[2], 8[3]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

CYP4F2 variants are associated with ischemic heart disease and atherosclerosis.13[1], 14[2], 15[3], 16[4] The enzyme's role in metabolizing lipids like arachidonic acid and its product hexadecanedioate's link to blood pressure likely drives this association.5[5], 7[6], 17[7], 18[8]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:CYP4F2
