High-Yield Explanation
Vitamin B6 is involved in a variety of reactions as shown below: Carbohydrate metabolism: Glycogen Phosphorylase Amino Acid Metabolism: All Transaminases - ALT, AST Cystathionine b synthase ,Cystathioninase,decarboxylases, Kynureninase, Heme synthesis, ALA synthase Lipid metabolism:- Synthesis of arachidonic acid, Synthesis of Sphingosine (Serine palmitoyltransferase & sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase) Steroid Hormone action: Removes hormone receptor complex from DNA & terminates the action of hormone.
