Camelliol C synthase (EC 5.4.99.38, CAMS1, LUP3 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name (3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene mutase (cyclizing, camelliol-C-forming).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] camelliol C

The product is mainly camelliol.
