Best Answer

Riboflavin functions as a coenzyme in energy metabolism. It forms the coenzymes FAD and FMN. These are involved in oxidation/reduction reactions such as those in the electron transport chain and the citric acid cycle. Riboflavin is necessary for metabolism of glucose, fatty acids, and the amino acid tryptophan.
