LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of arachidonate to 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-gpe reflects the activity of FADS1/FADS2 in converting shorter-chain fatty acids into arachidonic acid.

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

FADS1/FADS2 gene activity influences the level of arachidonate, a precursor for pro-inflammatory eicosanoids implicated in colon cancer development.3[1], 4[2], 5[3] Higher FADS1 expression is linked to increased tumor aggressiveness and is a potential prognostic marker for colon cancer.3[4], 6[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
