LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis.3[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3) biosynthesis.4[1], 5[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects FADS1/FADS2 activity; decreased enzyme function leads to lower levels of the denominator (22:3n3), a downstream product, thereby increasing the ratio.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in FADS1/FADS2 alter the synthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are precursors to inflammatory mediators.6[1], 7[2] This dysregulation can affect the balance of pro- and anti-inflammatory molecules, contributing to inflammatory conditions like asthma, sinusitis, and dermatitis.8[3], 9[4], 10[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
