LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid beta-oxidation, ketone body metabolism.6[1], 7[2], 8[3], 9[4], 10[5]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycine conjugation, detoxification of acyl-CoAs.11[1], 12[2], 13[3], 14[4], 15[5]

Ratio Explanation:

An elevated ratio suggests increased fatty acid oxidation and ketogenesis relative to the capacity for glycine-mediated detoxification of resulting acyl-CoA intermediates.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

CPS1 variants may disrupt urea cycle function, leading to metabolic stress. This, combined with altered fatty acid metabolism indicated by the ratio, could contribute to cellular dysfunction underlying the risk for cholelithiasis and chronic kidney disease, where metabolic and detoxification pathways are crucial.1[1], 16[2], 3[3], 5[4]

Phenotype Driver:
