  • Cytochrome P-450 101
  • Cytochrome P 450 cam
  • Cytochrome P-450(cam)
  • Cytochrome P-450-cam

Scope note

  • A soluble cytochrome P-450 enzyme that catalyzes camphor monooxygenation in the presence of putidaredoxin, putidaredoxin reductase, and molecular oxygen. This enzyme, encoded by the CAMC gene also known as CYP101, has been crystallized from bacteria and the structure is well defined. Under anaerobic conditions, this enzyme reduces the polyhalogenated compounds bound at the camphor-binding site.

History note

  • 97; was CAMPHOR-5-MONOOXYGENASE (NM) 1973-96
