Amorpha-4,11-diene 12-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.14.114, CYP71AV1) is an enzyme with systematic name amorpha-4,11-diene,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (12-hydroxylating).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following overall chemical reaction
- REDIRECT Template:Chemical reaction

The reaction proceeds in three oxidations, each catalysed by the enzyme, which is a cytochrome P450 protein containing heme, isolated from Artemisia annua. It requires a partner cytochrome P450 reductase for functional expression. This uses nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.[1][2] The product is used by the plant in the biosynthesis of artemisinin.[3]
