LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid de novo synthesis.5[1], 6[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.7[1], 8[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio compares a precursor sphingomyelin from de novo synthesis to a mature form, potentially reflecting dihydroceramide desaturase activity or overall sphingolipid turnover.7[1], 9[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

SGPP1's role in regulating sphingolipid metabolism may impact lipoprotein profiles and glucose homeostasis, linking it to dyslipidemia and altered HbA1c levels, as sphingolipids are key players in these metabolic processes.10[1], 11[2], 12[3], 4[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SGPP1
