LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis.4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism.7[1], 8[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of dihomo-linolenate to 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl-gpe may reflect FADS1 activity, where lower activity leads to accumulation of the precursor dihomo-linolenate.9[1], 3[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered FADS1/FADS2 activity, reflected by the fatty acid ratio, is linked to valvular heart disease and benign colon neoplasms, potentially through inflammation and altered cell signaling.10[1], 11[2], 12[3], 13[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
