In some tanning processes, yes. But not in others.
One very old process for tanning leather used layers of leather and animal dung, it was allowed to ferment for months. That used bacteria and fungi, but nobody knew it when the process was developed.
Bacteria is used in the pre-tanning processes ,i.e, soaking, dehairing, bating and degreasing. And most important it produces proteolytic enzymes known as proteases which are extracted and used in dehairing, soaking and bating processes which is required to produce leather.
Fire can burn leather into ash.
Sorry, there isn't a "formula" as such. Leather is made from the skins of various animals (cows, goats, pigs, horses, etc) and processed by "tanning" using a variety of techniques. It can then be finished with waxes, dyes, etc.
