In enzymology, a (−)-borneol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.227) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction[1]

(−)-borneol + NAD+ [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] (−)-camphor + NADH + H+

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (−)-borneol and NAD+, whereas its 3 products are (−)-camphor, NADH, and H+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (−)-borneol:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
