How PHDs achieve specificity: trans-4-prolyl hydroxylation of the transcription factor HIF occurs with stereochemical retention. Substrate-analogue studies show how the von Hippel Lindau tumor suppressor protein (pVHL) and the oxygen-sensing hydroxylases (PHDs) achieve specificity for hydroxy prolyl/prolyl residues for the C4-exo/endo prolyl conformations, respectively.
Practical synthesis of Boc and Fmoc protected 4-fluoro and 4-difluoroprolines from trans-4-hydroxyproline

Boc-cis-4-fluoro-L-proline and 4-difluoro-L-proline, usable in classical peptide synthesis, were obtained in respectively 71% (3 steps) and 65% (4 steps) overall yields from the readily available trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline methyl ester. The corresponding fluorinated trans-isomer was isolated in 24% yield (5 steps). Transformation of Boc-protected compounds to their Fmoc-equivalents was performed in high yields.
