LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis.4[1], 5[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Phosphatidylinositol metabolism.6[1], 7[2], 8[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the activity of FADS enzymes, comparing a phospholipid with linoleic acid (18:2) to one with arachidonic acid (20:4), its downstream product.3[1], 9[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Variants in FADS1/FADS2 alter the conversion of dietary fatty acids, impacting lipid profiles and inflammatory pathways.1[1], 10[2] This is strongly associated with phenotypes like pure hypercholesterolemia, inflammatory bowel disease, and asthma, which are mechanistically linked to lipid metabolism and inflammation.11[3], 12[4], 13[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
