Gad promotor from Pseudomonas

This basic part is the promotor in front of the gene for gad (gluconate dehydrogenase) in Pseudomonas putida. Gad is concerned with the glucose metabolism in P. putida. The gad promotor is negatively regulated by the repressor called PtxS. The glucose derivative 2-Ketogluconate can bind to it and this leads to subsequent release of PtxS from the promotor. For our project (NTNU Trondheim 2015) we integrated the promotor in front of the mCherry gene. Hence we built a glucose detection device, that expresses mCherry according to the glucose (and therefore 2-Ketogluconate) level in the environment (see BBa_K1840008). Note: The promotor kgu (BBa_K1840001) is repressed by the same repressor PtxS. See biobrick parts BBa_K1840000 and BBa_K1840002 for other promotors on operons regulated by glucose derivatives.
