उत्तर
Removing clots from blood vessels
Explanation:
The bacterium Streptococcus produces an enzyme called streptokinase. It is used in medicine as a thrombolytic, or clot-dissolving drug, to treat acute myocardial infarction, or heart attack. Plasminogen is transformed into plasmin, an enzyme that breaks up blood clots. To restore blood flow in clogged vessels, this function is essential. It is not utilised in the manufacture of curd or ethanol, or in the treatment of liver disease.
