LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis.4[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerolipid metabolism, PUFA metabolism.5[1]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects FADS enzyme efficiency, comparing a lipid containing the precursor fatty acid (18:2) to one containing the product fatty acid, arachidonic acid (20:4).2[1], 3[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation in FADS1/FADS2 alters the production of arachidonic acid (20:4) from linoleic acid (18:2), reflected in the ratio.2[1], 3[2] This change in PUFA balance impacts lipid metabolism and inflammation, contributing to hypercholesterolemia, cholelithiasis, and related metabolic disorders.6[3], 7[4], 8[5], 9[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
