LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis/PUFA biosynthesis.3[1], 4[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis.5[1], 6[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of hexadecadienoate (16:2n6) to myristate (14:0) reflects the activity of fatty acid desaturation and elongation, influenced by SCD.

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Variations in SCD activity alter the balance of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, impacting lipid profiles.7[1], 8[2] This is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases like myocardial infarction and hypercholesterolemia, as well as cholelithiasis.9[3], 10[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SCD
