4-Fluoroprolines: Conformational Analysis and Effects on the Stability and Folding of Peptides and Proteins

  • Chapter

Peptidomimetics I

Part of the book series: Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry ((TOPICS,volume 48))

Abstract

Proline is unique among proteinogenic amino acids because a pyrrolidine ring links its amino group to its side chain. This heterocycle constrains the conformations of the main chain and thus templates particular secondary structures. Proline residues undergo posttranslational modification at the 4-position to yield 4-hydroxyproline, which is especially prevalent in collagen. Interest in characterizing the effects of this modification led to the use of 4-fluoroprolines to enhance inductive properties relative to the hydroxyl group of 4-hydroxyproline and to eliminate contributions from hydrogen bonding. The strong inductive effect of the fluoro group has three main consequences: enforcing a particular pucker upon the pyrrolidine ring, biasing the conformation of the preceding peptide bond, and accelerating cistrans prolyl peptide bond isomerization. These subtle yet reliable modulations make 4-fluoroproline incorporation a complement to traditional genetic approaches for exploring structure–function relationships in peptides and proteins, as well as for endowing peptides and proteins with conformational stability.
