| Accepted name: |
camelliol C synthase |
| Reaction: |
(3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene = camelliol C |
| Other name(s): |
CAMS1; LUP3 (gene name) |
| Systematic name: |
(3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene mutase (cyclizing, camelliol-C-forming) |
| Comments: |
The product is 97% camelliol, 2% achilleol A and 0.2% β-amyrin. Achilleol is an isomer of camelliol C with a 4-methylenecyclohexanol ring system. This enzyme probably evolved from EC 5.4.99.39, β-amyrin synthase. |
