Definition:

EC Tree > 1 Oxidoreductases > 1.14 Acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen > 1.14.19 With oxidation of a pair of donors resulting in the reduction of O2 to two molecules of water > 1.14.19.52 camalexin synthase
Camalexin synthase is an Arabidopsis thaliana P-450 catalyzing the last two steps of camalexin (main phytoalexin) biosynthesis: first introducing a C=N double bond with release of HCN, then decarboxylation of (R)-dihydrocamalexate.
