Pgad - Intracellular Chloride-Sensing Cassette
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 Pgad. 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.

Usage and Biology
It has been used to fuse with GFP BBa_E0040 to quantitatively control GFP gene expression by providing different chloride concentration. The results can be seen in Part:BBa_K559011:Experience.
Also, it has been cooperated with BBa_K559010 halorhodopsin complete system for the photo-tunable gene expression platform. BBa_K559010 co-related between light and intracellular chloride ion, with this Pgad takes chloride ions as the intermediate to fine-control gene expression level.
