LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism.5[1], 6[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.7[1], 8[2], 9[3], 10[4]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio indicates the balance between major membrane lipid pools, glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids, which is influenced by FADS-mediated fatty acid desaturation.11[1], 12[2], 13[3]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation in the FADS1/FADS2 cluster alters polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism, which impacts the balance of membrane lipids. This dysregulates systemic lipid profiles and inflammatory responses, contributing to phenotypes like hypercholesterolemia, inflammatory bowel disease, and asthma.1[1], 3[2], 14[3], 15[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
