Has anyone heard of any examples of humans consuming organisms that are expressing the bacterial lux operon?
I know that firefly luciferase and a range of fluorescent proteins have been expressed in animals before with no toxic effects. I highly doubt that they would be any more toxic when ingested rather than expressed in the animal's own cells.
Anyone know if the bacterial lux operon has been used as a bioluminescent marker in animals?
