LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Phospholipid biosynthesis.4[1], 5[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis.6[1]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the enzymatic efficiency of FADS1/FADS2 in converting shorter-chain fatty acids, represented by the numerator, into long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids like the denominator.

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced FADS1/FADS2 activity, indicated by a higher ratio, is associated with altered lipid profiles, including pure hypercholesterolaemia, and skin conditions like follicular cysts.7[1], 8[2], 9[3] This suggests a link between fatty acid metabolism and cholesterol homeostasis, as well as skin health.

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
