LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Phosphatidylethanolamine Biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Phosphatidylethanolamine Biosynthesis

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the activity of FADS1/FADS2, which convert oleic and linoleic acids to long-chain PUFAs like arachidonic acid, impacting membrane composition and signaling.1[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced FADS1/FADS2 activity, suggested by the eQTL, can alter the balance of fatty acids in phospholipids.5[1] This dysregulation of lipid metabolism is linked to an increased risk for pure hypercholesterolemia and cholelithiasis, potentially by affecting cholesterol transport and bile composition.7[2], 8[3], 9[4], 10[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
