LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Steroid biosynthesis and metabolism.4[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Heme catabolism and bilirubin metabolism.5[1], 6[2], 7[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects UGT1A-mediated clearance. Reduced UGT1A function increases bilirubin (denominator), lowering the ratio, indicating impaired detoxification and elimination of bilirubin.1[1], 8[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced UGT1A activity impairs bilirubin conjugation, increasing serum bilirubin.9[1], 10[2] This promotes the formation of bilirubin-rich gallstones (cholelithiasis) and subsequent gallbladder inflammation (cholecystitis).8[3], 11[4], 12[5] The ratio is a biomarker for this genetically-driven disease risk.

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:UGT1A1
