I want to construct a reporter-vector for the inactivation of a =
promotor. For this purpose it would be verry helpful, if I could place =
two variants of GFP in the same plasmid (BFP constitutively expressed by =
e.G. CMV-promotor and EGFP controlled by the promotor I want to look =
at). This would enable me to measure the ratio of BFP to GFP and so even =
small changes could be measured. Did anyone try to do so as well, and =
are there any problems  (for example rearrangements between the two very =
similar sequences)?
