Solution
Vitamin B3
Explanation:
- NADH2 (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, reduced form) is synthesized from NAD+, which is directly derived from Vitamin B3 (Niacin).
- Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) is required for the synthesis of FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide) and FMN (Flavin Mononucleotide), but not NADH2.
- Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) is essential for the synthesis of Coenzyme A (CoA), which plays a role in metabolism but does not directly contribute to NADH2 formation.
