Delete LVA tail from reverse tetR-tetP-GFP

Resource:
Reverse tetR-tetP-GFP: from Lin Min, plasmid. Renamed as TPG
Reverse tetR-tetP*2, (not very confirm): from Lin Min, plasmid, Renamed as TP1, TP2
Vector: a plasmid with Kan resistant. From Lin Min
Primer:
Delete LVA primer, with complement to 20 last bps of tetR coding sequence and a TAA+Xba1 tail. And it can be use with one of standard primers (Rev), to amplify any sequence between the end of tetR and standard suffix.

Lane1: TP1,

Lane3: TP1 (use another standard primer for one)
Lane4: Marker;

The result is very strange:
TP1 and TP2 should be about 1kb, but there is not!
TPG should be about 2kB, but another 0.8k also very strong.

The plate (delete LVA TPG) is very well: more than 100 clones
And many colonies are become green under the blue light, which means that the expression of tetR can not fully repressed the promoter tetP.
The second picture is for comparison with no GFP colonies.

Plasmid mini prep:
Del-LVA-TPG1, 2, 3.

Result

I successfully deleted the LVA from the Reverse tetR-tetP-GFP. Yet, the result is not very promising, because the colonies became green on the plate, without inducing.
It needs more quantitative data, but it is obviously that this cloning does not work very well.
