LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

GPI anchor biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis7[1], 8[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects FADS-mediated polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) synthesis, comparing a GPI-anchor species with a downstream omega-6 PUFA, likely indicating FADS activity.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation in FADS1/FADS2 alters desaturase activity, impacting polyunsaturated fatty acid levels.4[1], 6[2] This dysregulation is linked to phenotypes like hypercholesterolemia, cholelithiasis, and asthma, likely through effects on inflammation and lipid metabolism.4[3], 9[4], 10[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
