- - - - Its is essential for glucose metabolism and its play a role in nerve,muscle andheart function
        
        Dificiencies lead to disease called Beriberi
  - - - Important for electron transfer in many biological reactions.
        
        Transfer electron one or two at a time
        
        Deficiencies lead to growth retardation,reproductive problems and neutral degenaration
  - - - -Also know as nicotinic acid
        
        Deficiencies lead to pellagra ( dermatitis,diarrhea,dementia )
        
        Can be synthesized from trytophan in the liver
  - - - One of the three natural forms of vitamin B6,along with pyridoxamine and pyridoxine
        
        All of the structure are heterocyclic organic compounds
