What's The Definition Of The Medical Condition Camphor-5-Monooxygenase?
A monooxygenase heme-thiolate (cytochrome P-450) with camphor bound at the active site. It acts as the terminal monooxygenase in the d-camphor monooxygenase system. Under anaerobic conditions, this enzyme reduces the polyhalogenated compounds bound at the camphor-binding site. Additionally, it is the only cytochrome P-450 enzyme with a known crystal structure. (Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 1989; 86(20):7823-7; Proteins 1991;11(3):184-204) EC 1.14.15.1.
