Abstract

In this work, complexes of cysteine proteases, namely bromelain, papain and ficin, with a graft copolymer of chitosan and poly(N,N-dimethyl amino ethyl methacrylate) were obtained. It was determined that the enzyme catalytic activity in the complexes is reduced compared to their native forms. The results of molecular docking showed that modified polysaccharide located in the catalytic pocket of cysteine proteases globules. The resulting complexes have increased stability when stored under physiological conditions, which makes them promising candidates for use in the development of treatments for wounds.
