  2. Megavitamin-B6 syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megavitamin-B6_syndrome

    Pyridoxine is converted to pyridoxal phosphate via two enzymes, pyridoxal kinase and pyridoxine 5′-phosphate oxidase. High levels of pyridoxine can inhibit these enzymes. As pyridoxal phosphate is the active form of vitamin B 6, this saturation of pyridoxine could mimic a deficiency of vitamin B 6. [23] [27]

  3. 1-Deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Deoxy-D-xylulose_5-phosphate

    The enzyme involved in making 1-deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate (DXP) is DXP synthase. [2] The mechanism follows a catalysis of decarboxylative condensation of pyruvate and d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to produce DXP. [2] [3] In addition, the molecule is involved in making thiamine (vitamin B 1) and pyridoxol (vitamin B 6). [2]

  5. Pyridoxal phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyridoxal_phosphate

    Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP, pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, P5P), the active form of vitamin B 6, is a coenzyme in a variety of enzymatic reactions. The International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology has catalogued more than 140 PLP-dependent activities, corresponding to ~4% of all classified activities. [5]

  6. Pyridoxine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyridoxine

    Pyridoxine (PN) [4] is a form of vitamin B 6 found commonly in food and used as a dietary supplement.As a supplement it is used to treat and prevent pyridoxine deficiency, sideroblastic anaemia, pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy, certain metabolic disorders, side effects or complications of isoniazid use, and certain types of mushroom poisoning.

    Dietary supplements containing all eight are referred to as a vitamin B complex. Individual B vitamins are referred to by B-number or by chemical name, such as B 1 for thiamine, B 2 for riboflavin, and B 3 for niacin, [1] [2] while some are more commonly recognized by name than by number, such as pantothenic acid (B 5), biotin (B 7), and folate ...

  9. 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5...

    Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are pyruvate and d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, whereas its two products are 1-deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate and CO 2. This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases , specifically those transferring aldehyde or ketonic groups (transaldolases and transketolases, respectively).
