(-)-camphene synthase (EC 4.2.3.117, CS) is an enzyme with systematic name geranyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, (-)-camphene-forming).[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

geranyl diphosphate (-)-camphene + diphosphate

(-)-Camphene is the major product in Abies grandis (grand fir) with traces of other monoterpenoids.
