LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Phenylalanine and gut microbiota metabolism.6[1], 7[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Tyrosine and phenylalanine gut microbial metabolism.8[1], 9[2], 10[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may reflect altered gut microbiome metabolism or transport of these organic anions, potentially influenced by SLC17A4, impacting uremic toxin levels.1[1], 11[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

A missense variant in the SLC17A4 transporter could alter its function, leading to changes in the transport and circulating levels of the gut-derived metabolites phenylacetylglutamate and p-cresol sulfate.1[1], 3[2] This may contribute to the observed phenotypes related to kidney function (serum creatinine, uric acid) and hematological parameters.5[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC17A4
