The reason that this compound is required in the diet of humans is
that it:
O is part of the coenzyme A molecule.
O helps fatty acids cross the inner mitochondrial membrane.
O is involved in the reoxidation of cytosolic NADH under
anaerobic conditions.
O is a precursor of one of the most important oxidizing agents
in cells.
O is part of the flavin adenine dinucleotide molecule.
