Popis: The methods of the fabrication of polymers based on aspartic and glutamic acids as monomers are reviewed. The methods are perspective from the viewpoint of green chemistry and economics. Actual tendencies existing in the application of the polymers in medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutics are also considered. The results of using mentioned polymers of amino acids to obtain stable nanosized enzymatic complex drugs, based on organophosphate hydrolase and possessing both antibacterial and antineurotoxic action are presented. The drugs are effective destructors of N-acyl homoserine lactones, playing the role of signaling molecules for the quorum response of gram-negative bacteria. These enzymatic-polymer complexes in combination with well-known antibiotics reduce antimicrobial doses inhibiting growth of the pathogens.
