LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Arachidonic acid synthesis, eicosanoid precursor4[1], 5[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism6[1], 7[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of arachidonate (20:4n6) to 5-dodecenoate (12:1n7) reflects the efficiency of polyunsaturated fatty acid synthesis, influenced by FADS1/FADS2 enzyme activity.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in the FADS cluster influence the levels of arachidonic acid.8[1], 9[2] Altered FADS activity and subsequent changes in fatty acid profiles are associated with a range of inflammatory and metabolic disorders, including cholelithiasis and type 2 diabetes.10[3], 11[4], 12[5], 13[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
