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.
