Description
Pgad is chloride-sensitive promoter which was first discovered in Lactococcus lactis1, which is a gram-positive bacterium which can live in acidic environment.
In this operon, gadC is glutamate-gamma-aminobutyrate antiporter and gadB is glutamate decarboxylase. They are both involved in intracellular pH regulation and co-expressed in the same operon under the control of Pgad2. The gene before Pgad, named gadR, which is constitutively expressed under the control of PgadR, is a positive regulator of Pgad coupled genes while intracellular chloride is level elevated.
Notes
Synthesized part by GenScript,all the illegal sites for RFC 10 (EcoRI, XbaI, SpeI, PstI) have been substituted by other codon producing the same amino acid in E. coli.
Source
The gene sequence was obtained from the cassette from bp 821 to 2071 of GenBank sequence AF005098, which includes PgadR, gadR, Pgad and the starting codon ATG.
