LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Methionine salvage pathway.4[1], 5[2], 6[3], 7[4]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Leucine catabolism, Glycine conjugation pathway.8[1], 9[2], 10[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may reflect a metabolic shift where impaired urea cycle function (CPS1) influences pathways for amino acid catabolism and salvage, though a direct link is not established.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites unrelated

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Impaired CPS1 function can lead to hyperammonemia, affecting liver and kidney function.11[1], 12[2], 13[3] Cholelithiasis has been observed in patients with low CPS1 expression and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.14[4] DMTPA is also a marker for reduced glomerular filtration rate.4[5], 5[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:CPS1
