LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Tryptophan metabolism.4[1], 5[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Tyrosine metabolism, carnitine conjugation.6[1], 7[2], 8[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio may reflect altered ACSM2B activity, which has a higher affinity for benzoate than phenylacetate, potentially affecting the metabolism of their respective upstream precursors.9[1]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

No phenotype was associated through colocalization or Mendelian randomization, so a direct link between the ratio and a specific phenotype cannot be established.

Phenotype Driver:

none
