LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis5[1], 6[2], 7[3], 8[4]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Omega-3 fatty acid metabolism9[1], 10[2], 11[3], 12[4], 13[5]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of palmitoleate to DHA reflects the balance between endogenous monounsaturated fatty acid synthesis by SCD and polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid metabolism.1[1], 11[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Increased SCD gene activity elevates palmitoleate synthesis.1[1], 5[2] A higher palmitoleate to DHA ratio is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular diseases like coronary atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction, as well as hypercholesterolemia.14[3], 15[4], 16[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SCD
