The B vitamins function as part of co-enzymes. A co-enzyme is a small molecule that combines with an enzyme and activates it.
The B vitamins are "helpers". The energy yielding nutrients--carbohydrate, fat and protein--give the body fuel for energy; the B vitamins help the body use that fuel. Vitamin B6 helps the body use amino acids to synthesize proteins; the body then puts the protein to work in many ways--to build new tissues, to make hormones, to fight infections, or to serve as fuel for energy.
