LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the efficiency of FADS1 in converting dihomo-linolenate, an omega-6 fatty acid, into downstream products like adrenate.1[1], 4[2], 5[3]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

FADS1 gene variants influence the conversion of dihomo-linolenate, impacting levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory lipid mediators.5[1], 6[2] This altered balance affects the risk for inflammatory conditions like asthma and metabolic traits such as hypercholesterolemia.7[3], 8[4], 9[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
