LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis.4[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis, Fatty acid biosynthesis.5[1], 6[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects fatty acid desaturase (FADS1/FADS2) activity by comparing a phospholipid with linoleic acid (18:2) to one with arachidonic acid (20:4).7[1], 3[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation in FADS1 alters its desaturase activity, impacting the balance of polyunsaturated fatty acids reflected in the ratio. This dysregulation of lipid metabolism is linked to variations in blood cholesterol levels and risk for pure hypercholesterolaemia.1[1], 8[2], 9[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
