LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Phospholipid biosynthesis7[1], 8[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the conversion of fatty acids into more complex molecules. A higher ratio may suggest increased FADS activity, leading to higher arachidonic acid levels.5[1], 6[2], 9[3]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Variants in the FADS gene cluster are linked to altered fatty acid levels and a higher risk for hypercholesterolemia and cholelithiasis.10[1], 11[2], 12[3], 13[4], 14[5], 15[6], 16[7], 17[8], 18[9], 19[10], 20[11] FADS activity influences the balance of fatty acids, potentially affecting cholesterol metabolism and gallstone formation.

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
