LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism/oxidation.4[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism.5[1]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the balance between a medium-chain (14:2) and a long-chain (16:2n6) fatty acid, potentially modulated by THEM4 thioesterase activity on acyl-CoAs.6[1], 7[2], 8[3]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants associated with THEM4 expression may alter mitochondrial fatty acid metabolism, influencing the fatty acid profile.2[1], 6[2], 3[3] This altered lipid environment could affect inflammation or colonic cell integrity, contributing to the development of diverticular disease.9[4], 10[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:THEM4
