LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyamine metabolism.6[1], 7[2], 8[3], 9[4]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid oxidation.10[1]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may reflect a disruption in nitrogen disposal pathways (urea cycle and polyamines) relative to energy metabolism, likely driven by impaired CPS1 function.6[1], 11[2], 12[3], 13[4]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

A missense variant in CPS1, a critical urea cycle enzyme, likely impairs ammonia detoxification.3[1], 1[2], 14[3], 15[4] This systemic metabolic stress can manifest as renal failure and cholelithiasis, with the altered metabolite ratio reflecting this underlying genetic defect and consequent metabolic dysregulation.

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:CPS1
