LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism/beta-oxidation10[1], 11[2], 12[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism13[1], 14[2], 15[3], 16[4]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the balance between endogenous synthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids (palmitoleoylcarnitine's precursor) and the levels of an exogenous, odd-chain saturated fatty acid.

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

SCD-mediated synthesis of palmitoleic acid (the precursor to palmitoleoylcarnitine) is linked to hyperlipidemia. Altered levels of both metabolites are associated with cardiovascular and metabolic phenotypes, suggesting a complex interplay between endogenous fatty acid metabolism and exogenous fatty acid levels in these conditions.1[1], 2[2]

Phenotype Driver:
