    Bacteria and fungi also produce exoenzymes to digest nutrients in their environment, and these organisms can be used to conduct laboratory assays to identify the presence and function of such exoenzymes. [2] Some pathogenic species also use exoenzymes as virulence factors to assist in the spread of these disease-causing microorganisms. [3]
