LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, PUFA biosynthesis.4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Saturated fatty acid synthesis.7[1], 8[2], 9[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects FADS1 desaturase activity, contrasting a polyunsaturated glycerophosphoinositol (1-linoleoyl-GPI) with a saturated glycerophosphocholine (1,2-dipalmitoyl-GPC), indicating the balance of fatty acid pools.10[1], 11[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation in FADS1 alters PUFA synthesis, reflected by the ratio.12[1] This dysregulation of PUFAs, which are precursors to inflammatory mediators, contributes to phenotypes like asthma, hypercholesterolemia, and cholelithiasis by affecting inflammation and lipid metabolism.13[2], 14[3], 15[4], 16[5], 17[6], 18[7]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
