Simians and passerine birds can no long synthesize this compound, which can be made from in glucose in a four-step process featuring the l-gulonolactone oxidase enzyme. This vitamin is needed for the synthesis of norepinephrine, carnitine, and the metabolism of tyrosine, and though it normally acts to reduce oxidative stress, it can also function as a pro- oxidant. It is most important as a cofactor for prolyl hydroxylase and lysyl hydroxylase, enzymes which are needed for the proper formation of collagen‟s triple helix structure.
