1. A topical composition comprising an extract comprising hexokinase, a heat shock protein, and an alcohol dehydrogenase, wherein the heat shock protein is HSP70, and wherein the extract is produced by culturing a biological device comprising host cells transformed with a vector, wherein culturing is conducted under exposure to UV radiation, and wherein the vector comprises a DNA construct comprising the following genetic components:
(a) a gene having SEQ ID NO: 4 or at least 90% homology thereto that encodes the hexokinase;
(b) a gene having SEQ ID NO: 5 or at least 90% homology thereto that encodes the heat shock protein;
(c) a gene having SEQ ID NO: 6 or at least 90% homology thereto that encodes the alcohol dehydrogenase.
