Recent efforts to identify new highly potent arginase inhibitors have resulted in the discovery of a novel family of (3R,4S)-3-amino-4-(3-boronopropyl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid analogues with up to a 1000-fold increase in potency relative to the current standards, 2-amino-6-boronohexanoic acid (ABH) and N-hydroxy-nor-l-arginine (nor-NOHA). The lead candidate, with an N-2-amino-3-phenylpropyl substituent
