LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism3[1], 4[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism3[1], 4[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio compares saturated (C18:0) to unsaturated sphingomyelins.5[1] ISM1's regulation of upstream lipid synthesis can alter the relative abundance of different sphingomyelin species.2[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

ISM1-mediated changes in sphingolipid metabolism can alter lipoprotein profiles and biliary lipid composition.1[1], 2[2], 6[3] This dysregulation affects LDL-cholesterol levels and is a risk factor for cholelithiasis (gallstones).7[4], 8[5], 6[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:[ISM1]
