LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Secondary bile acid sulfation.

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Alternative bile acid synthesis.

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects SULT2A1 activity, with a higher value indicating greater sulfation of a secondary bile acid (numerator) relative to a primary precursor (denominator).4[1], 5[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in SULT2A1 alter bile acid sulfation, which can change bile composition and solubility.1[1], 6[2], 7[3] This metabolic shift is a known risk factor for developing cholelithiasis (gallstones) and associated biliary complications like cholecystitis.8[4], 9[5], 10[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SULT2A1
