Some compounds produced by microbes have therapeutic benefits that exceed their antibiotic applications. For example, statins are a class of compounds produced by fungi that inhibit the production of cholesterol. Another bioactive molecule called Cyclosporin A produced by the fungus Trichoderma polysporum,is used as an immunosuppressive agent in organ-transplant patients to ensure that the new organ is not rejected by the recipient and it integrated into the recipient’s body seamlessly. Streptokinase is a protein produced by the bacterium Streptococcus that enhances the action of a human protein that clears blood clots. Lipase is an enzyme that digests lipids. It is used for digesting oily stains on clothes. Some important lipase-producing bacterial genera include Bacillus, Pseudomonas and Burkholderia.
