LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.4[1], 5[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism.

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the balance between sphingolipid and specific glycerophospholipid synthesis, potentially influenced by shared fatty acid precursors regulated by FADS enzymes.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in FADS1/FADS2 are associated with altered FADS2 expression and desaturase activity, which can influence fatty acid composition.6[1] This alteration in lipid metabolism is linked to valvular heart disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and hypercholesterolemia.6[2], 7[3], 8[4], 9[5], 10[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
