That's assuming, of course, that you can get insect genes to express in a bacteria, that they get the correct posttranslational modification to be active, that all the genes for the luciferin biosynthesis pathway are adjacent, and close enough together to fit in the bacteria in one piece, and that the bacteria has the right metabolic precursors available. A *lot* of things would have to go just right for this experiment to work.
At least you do know the firefly luciferase already, so you can add that in on a plasmid.
