LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.7[1], 8[2], 9[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the conversion of glucosylceramide to lactosylceramide, a key step in glycosphingolipid synthesis.7[1], 10[2] ATP10D function may modulate substrate availability.1[3]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered ATP10D expression likely modifies the GlcCer/LacCer ratio, impacting cell membrane composition and signaling.1[1], 11[2] This plausibly affects red blood cell characteristics, monocyte counts, and glucose metabolism (HbA1c), consistent with ATP10D's known functions in insulin sensitivity.12[3], 13[4], 14[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:ATP10D
