LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis4[1], 5[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Plasmalogen biosynthesis, Glycerophospholipid metabolism6[1], 7[2], 8[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects FADS1/FADS2 activity, comparing a phosphatidylcholine with DHA (omega-3) to a plasmalogen with linoleic acid (omega-6), both influenced by FADS desaturation.1[1], 9[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

FADS1/FADS2 variants alter PUFA metabolism, affecting the balance of omega-3 and omega-6 derived lipids.9[1], 2[2] This dysregulation influences inflammatory and lipid pathways, plausibly increasing risk for associated phenotypes like asthma, hypercholesterolemia, and cholelithiasis.10[3], 11[4], 12[5], 13[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
