LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Phospholipid biosynthesis, fatty acid metabolism.1[1], 4[2], 5[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Phospholipid biosynthesis, fatty acid metabolism.6[1], 7[2], 5[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the balance of fatty acids incorporated into phosphatidylethanolamines, influenced by FADS1 activity which alters the availability of different fatty acid species.8[1], 9[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

FADS1 variants alter desaturase activity, affecting the fatty acid pool for phospholipid synthesis. This change in lipid composition is linked to cholelithiasis (gallstones), dyslipidemia, and inflammatory conditions like asthma and sinusitis, likely by modifying cholesterol metabolism and inflammatory pathways.10[1], 11[2]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
