LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects CERS4 activity, which synthesizes ceramide precursors for different sphingomyelin species, thereby influencing their relative abundance based on fatty acid composition.2[1]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

No phenotype was provided, so a link between the CERS4-driven sphingomyelin ratio and a clinical outcome cannot be established with the available data.

Phenotype Driver:

none
