We find that a large number of anions cause a significant increase of the p/sfa of the Schiff base, an effect attributed to binding to “site I” on the protein. The concentration de-pendencies of the spectroscopic shifts associated with the changes of the p yielded dissociation constants (and thus binding energies) for the anions, which were related to the Stokes radii. The data fit the predictions of electrostatic interaction between the anions and the positive chargeassociated with site I, if the latter is located within a few angstroms from thesurface of the protein. The specificity of site I toward various anions is quantitatively explained by thedifferences in the change of Born energy upon transfer of the anions from water to the binding site. The changes in the deprotonation energy of the Schiff base upon the binding of anions, AAGdeprot, could be calculated from the ApKa at infinite anion concentration. Unexpectedly, the
