LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

GPI anchor biosynthesis4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis7[1], 8[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the activity of FADS2, which synthesizes the denominator stearidonate, relative to the synthesis of the GPI-anchored lipid in the numerator.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in FADS1/FADS2 are linked to altered polyunsaturated fatty acid levels and inflammation, influencing risk for inflammatory conditions like IBD and dermatitis, and metabolic disorders such as hypercholesterolemia and type 2 diabetes, which are associated with this ratio.9[1], 10[2], 11[3], 12[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
