cis-(2S,4S) 4-Amino-proline (cAmp) and trans-(2S,4R) 4-amino-proline (tAmp) residues, bearing N-For or N-Boc substituents at the two amino groups, have been incorporated into the potent chemotactic agent fMLF-OMe in place of the N-terminal native (S)-methionine to give the analogues 17a–19a and 17b–19b. The new ligands have been examined for their activity (chemotaxis, superoxide anion production and
