Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Following is the column of bioactive substances and their roles
`{:(Column I,Column II),(("Bioactive substance"),("Role").),(A."Statin","Lowering of blood cholesterol"),(B."Cyclosporin-A","Immuno-supressive agent"),(C."Streptokinase","Removal of clots from blood vessels"),(D."Lipase","Removal of oil stains"):}`
Statins produced by the yeast Monascus purpureus have been commercialised as blood cholesterol lowering agents. Cyclosporin A, produced by the fungus Trichoderms polysporum is used as an immunosuppressive agent in organ transplant patients. Streptokinase produced by the bacterium Streptococcus and modified by genetic engineering is used as a 'clot buster' for removing clots from the blood vessels of patients who have undergone myocardial infaction leading to heart attack. Lipases are used in detergent formulations and are helpful in removing oily stains from the laundry.
