LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis and beta-oxidation.5[1], 6[2], 7[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid beta-oxidation and carnitine shuttle.8[1], 9[2], 10[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects ACOT2 activity, which influences the partitioning of acyl-CoAs between hydrolysis to free fatty acids (numerator) and conjugation for mitochondrial oxidation (denominator).1[1], 11[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants altering ACOT2 function likely disrupt mitochondrial fatty acid metabolism, reflected by the ratio. This dysregulation can lead to abnormal lipid profiles, such as hypercholesterolemia, and increase the risk for cardiovascular phenotypes like coronary atherosclerosis, cholelithiasis, and myocardial infarction.12[1], 13[2], 14[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:ACOT2
