I knocked GFP into Bacillus at amyE locus but found results were interesting. Most successful transformants carrying Spectinomycin marker lose their ability to degrade starch. This was expected. However, in term of fluorescence, most of the transformants only have faint green glow under blue light but one of them is super bright even without inducers. I am confused which one is the norm of the right knock-in. Why is one much brighter than the others? The GFP plasmids were extracted from E. coli and use directly for transformation. They should not replicate in Bacillus.
