LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

N-acyltaurine biosynthesis4[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism5[1]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of n-oleoyltaurine to hexadecadienoate reflects FAAH activity; decreased FAAH function increases n-oleoyltaurine levels, thus elevating the ratio.1[1], 6[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

A missense variant in FAAH reduces its function, leading to an accumulation of n-oleoyltaurine and an increased ratio, though a direct link to a phenotype is not established.7[1], 1[2]

Phenotype Driver:

none
