Abstract
Chloride plays a key role in activating the photosynethetic oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of Photosystem II, but the OEC is only one of many enzymes affected by this anion. Some of the mechanistic features of Cl− involvement in water-splitting resemble those of other proteins whose structure and chemistry are known in detail. An overview of the similarities and differences between these Cl−-binding systems is presented.Keywords
