Item Introduction

Item Introduction

Vitamin B12 is the collective term for a number of substances with qualitatively equivalent biological effects. These compounds consist of a corrin ring system that is similar to porphyrin with four reduced pyrrole rings and a central cobalt ion and are therefore referred to as cobalamins. Characteristically, all cobalamins have an α-axial ligand at the cobalt ion consisting of a phosphoribosyl-5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole side chain. The β-axial position can be occupied by various substituents. Depending on the group (R), a distinction is made between cyano- (R = CN), aquo-(R = H2O), hydroxo- (R = OH), methyl- (R = CH3), and adenosyl-(R = 5’-deoxyadenosyl) cobalamin. Cobalamins are synthesized only by microorganisms, and humans and animals receive them solely through the food chain. In natural foods, vitamin B12 is present mainly as hydroxocobalamin and adenosylcobalamin and is found in milk as methylcobalamin. Due to its stability, cyanocobalamin is used in fortified foods as well as in pharmaceuticals and dietary supplements. Some pharmaceuticals and dietary supplements also contain hydroxocobalamin and methylcobalamin.

Vitamin B12 is necessary for the transformation of methyltetrahydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate for DNA synthesis. B12 deficiency can therefore lead to functional folate deficiency and impaired DNA synthesis, resulting in pernicious (megaloblastic) anaemia.
