LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Methionine salvage, polyamine biosynthesis.4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid oxidation, amino acid catabolism.7[1], 8[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may reflect the balance between methionine/polyamine metabolism and fatty acid/amino acid oxidation, potentially influenced by SLC22A1 transporter activity.1[1], 3[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered SLC22A1 function likely impacts hepatic acylcarnitine and mta levels, contributing to dysregulated lipid and energy metabolism, which is consistent with the observed lipoprotein metabolism disorders and hypercholesterolemia phenotypes.3[1], 9[2], 10[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A1
