LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid β-oxidation

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism, Lipid transport

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of 3-hydroxyoleoylcarnitine to hexanoylcarnitine may reflect alterations in fatty acid oxidation and transport, potentially influenced by SLC22A1 activity. 1[1]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

The link between the ratio and phenotype is likely driven by altered lipid metabolism. SLC22A1, a transporter of acylcarnitines, may influence circulating lipid levels. 1[1], 2[2]This aligns with the observed association with disorders of lipoprotein metabolism and hypercholesterolemia, as well as altered levels of cholesterol and related biomarkers.

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A1
