Vitamin B2

Features

The main physiological function of vitamin B2 is to promote metabolism as a coenzyme. Riboflavin combines with phosphoric acid and a molecule of protein to form the yellow enzyme. This class of enzymes, also known as dehydrogenases. The very mediated transfer of hydrogen atoms is important for the metabolism of sugars, lipids and amino acids. It is an essential factor for the growth of many animals and microorganisms.

Function and use
The main physiological function of vitamin B2 is to promote metabolism as a coenzyme. Riboflavin combines with phosphoric acid and a molecule of protein to form the yellow enzyme. This class of enzymes, also known as dehydrogenases. The very mediated transfer of hydrogen atoms is important for the metabolism of sugars, lipids and amino acids. It is an essential factor for the growth of many animals and microorganisms.
Vitamin B2 binds to specific proteins to produce yellow enzymes. Yellow enzymes play a role in transferring hydrogen in material metabolism and participate in the respiration process of tissues.
