FIELD
[0003] Provided are colostrum and milk polypeptides recombinantly expressed in photosynthetic organisms, compositions comprising such organisms and methods for producing such organisms.
BACKGROUND
[0004] Colostrum or milk bioactive proteins have only been available from the natural source (e.g., human and bovine colostrum or milk); because natural sources are in very limited supply, so too are the associated bioactives contained in them. Tailored combinations of colostrum and milk bioactives have never been available. Bioactive colostrum and milk proteins require both polypeptide accumulation and correct protein folding and post-translational modification.
SUMMARY
[0005] The invention provides a solution to drawbacks associated with conventional recombinant protein production methods. For example, the methods feature photosynthetic organisms such as the Chlamydomonas reinhartdii, a single-cell green alga, engineered to contain nucleic acids encoding a milk or colostrum protein in the chloroplasts. As a result, the organism produces recombinant biologically active mammalian proteins in the chloroplast. Algae's ability to fold, assemble and accumulate multiple domain proteins as soluble molecules with appropriate post-translational modification of phosphorylation, to preserve biological activity, offers significant advantages. The organisms, isolated cells, and/or sub-cellular organelles such as chloroplasts are useful to produce proteins, which are rare or non-existent in the plant genome/proteome. The proteins produced can be delivered without purification, compared to conventional bioreactor systems, e.g., CHO, bacteria, or yeast, to yield bioactive compounds useful in an edible delivery system.
[0006] This edible delivery system comprises food as medicine for not only human therapy but also for veterinary use for companion animals such as dogs and cat as well as livestock such as cows, pigs, chickens, horses and other performance as well as working animals. Purification of bioactive proteins is expedited using the engineered organisms and direct oral administration of organisms themselves leads to efficient delivery, e.g., oral delivery, to gastrointestinal tissues. Oral delivery leads to absorption and assimilation of the encoded proteins into tissues, e.g., bone tissue, of the subject to which the protein or recombinant organism is administered. The system is particularly useful to express/produce proteins, the biological activity of which depends on post-translational modification such as phosphorylation.
[0007] Accordingly provided are photosynthetic organisms, e.g., algae and cyanobacteria, as well as cells purified from populations of such organisms and/or sub-cellular organelles, e.g., chloroplasts, purified or obtained from such organism.

Definitions
[0016] The term "non-vascular photosynthetic eukaryotic organism" refers to an organism of the kingdom Planta that does not have xylem or phloem. These include all species of algae and mosses as well as other photosynthetic organisms like liverworts.
[0017] The term "bioactive" refers to detectable biological activity of a polypeptide, using any assay known in the art to detect the biological activity. The biological activities of the polypeptides described herein and assays for detecting their biological activity are known in the art. For example, the bioactivity of osteopontin can be measured by the ability of osteopontin to adhere to human embryonic 293 cells when in the presence of the divalent cations, Mg.sup.2+ or Mn.sup.2+ but not Ca.sup.2+ (Hu, et al, J Biol Chem. (1995) 270(17):9917-25). The bioactivity of mammary-associated serum amyloid (MAA) protein can be determined by the purified proteins ability to stimulate muc3 production from HT29 cells (Manuell et al., Plant Biotechnol J. (2007) 5(3):402-12). The bioactivity of lactadherin can be determined by its ability to bind to phosphatidylserine (Otzen, et al., Biochim Biophys Acta. (2012) 1818(4):1019-27). Cathelicidin-1 activity can be determined using an antimicrobial assay and measuring luminescence. See, e.g., Sue, et al. Infect Immun. 2000 68(5) 2748-2755.
[0018] The terms "identical" or percent "identity," and variants thereof in the context of two or more polynucleotide or two or more amino acid sequences, refer to two or more sequences or subsequences that are the same. Sequences are "substantially identical" if they have a specified percentage of nucleic acid residues or amino acid residues that are the same (i.e., at least 60% identity, optionally at least 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identity to a reference sequence (e.g., SEQ ID NOs: 1-24) over a specified region (or the whole reference sequence when not specified)), when compared and aligned for maximum correspondence over a comparison window, or designated region as measured using any sequence comparison algorithm known in the art (GAP, BESTFIT, BLAST, Align, FASTA, and TFASTA in the Wisconsin Genetics Software Package, Genetics Computer Group (GCG), 575 Science Dr., Madison, Wis.), Karlin and Altschul Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 87:2264-2268 (1990) set to default settings, or by manual alignment and visual inspection (see, e.g., Ausubel et al., Current Protocols in Molecular Biology (1995-2014). Provided are polynucleotides improved for expression in photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cells that are substantially identical to the polynucleotides of SEQ ID NOs: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 17, 19, 21 and 23. Provided are polypeptides expressed in photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cells that are substantially identical to the polypeptides of SEQ ID NOs: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 22 and 24. Optionally, the identity exists over a region that is at least about 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 amino acids in length, or more preferably over a region that is 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 800, 1000, or more, nucleic acids in length, or over the full-length of the sequence.
[0019] The term "conservatively modified variations" refers to individual substitutions, deletions or additions which alter, add or delete a single amino acid or a small percentage of amino acids (typically less than 5%, more typically less than 1%) in an encoded sequence, where the alterations result in the substitution of an amino acid with a chemically similar amino acid; and the alterations, deletions or additions do not alter the structure, function and/or immunogenicity of the sequence. Conservative substitution tables providing functionally similar amino acids are well known in the art. The following six groups each contain amino acids that are conservative substitutions for one another:
[0020] 1) Alanine (A), Serine (S), Threonine (T);
[0021] 2) Aspartic acid (D), Glutamic acid (E);
[0022] 3) Asparagine (N), Glutamine (Q);
[0023] 4) Arginine (R), Lysine (K);
[0024] 5) Isoleucine (I), Leucine (L), Methionine (M), Valine (V); and
[0025] 6) Phenylalanine (F), Tyrosine (Y), Tryptophan (W).

In varying embodiments, two or more colostrum/milk polypeptides can be expressed from the chloroplasts of the same organism.
[0048] Genes encoding bioactive colostrum/milk proteins have altered codons for expression from the chloroplast genomes of edible photosynthetic organisms (e.g., for example, higher plants, algae, microalgae, including Chlorophyta , e.g., Chlamydomonas reinhardtii) or from the genome or plasmid of cyanobacteria). Illustrative colostrum/milk proteins include without limitation mammary associated serum amyloid A3, lactoperoxidase, lactoferrin, osteopontin, lysozyme, alpha-lactalbumin, lactadherin, soluble CD14, cathelicidin-1, and lingual antimicrobial peptide (FIG. 1). The colostrum/milk genes can be integrated into and expressed from the chloroplast genomes of photosynthetic organisms. Expression and bioactivity can be confirmed using methods known in the art.
[0049] Production and/or delivery of colostrum/milk polypeptides in edible photosynthetic organisms finds use, e.g., in human and mammal health and nutrition; prophylaxis and treatment for enteric infection; prophylaxis and/or treatment of gastric, intestinal, or bowel inflammation; improving nutrient uptake efficiency; improving bone strength; food preservation and processing; cosmetics preservation; odor treatment and neutralization; oral hygiene; acne treatment; and topical and oral antibacterial, antiviral, and/or antimicrobial therapy.
2. Colostrum/Milk Polynucleotides and Polypeptides
[0050] Photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms have one or more polynucleotides encoding one or more mammalian colostrum/milk polypeptides are integrated into the chloroplast genome. In varying embodiments, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or more, polynucleotides encoding mammalian colostrum/milk polypeptides are independently integrated into the chloroplast genome of a photosynthetic organism.
[0051] Illustrative mammalian colostrum/milk polypeptides for expression in photosynthetic organisms (e.g. chlorophyta, e.g., Chlamydomonas), and chloroplast and cells thereof, are described above and herein. See, e.g., Smolenski, et al., J Proteome Res. 2007 Jan.; 6(1):207-15; Boudry and Thewis, Bulletin UASVM Animal Science and Biotechnologies (2009) 66 (1-2); Chatterton, et al., Intl Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology 45 (2013) 1730-1747; Lis, et al., Postepy Hig Med Dosw (2013) 67: 529-547; and Artym, et al., Postepy Hig Med Dosw (2013) 67: 800-816. In varying embodiments, the one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides are whey proteins (e.g., alpha-lactalbumim, beta-lactoglobulin, osteopontin, lactoferrin and/or immunoglobulins). The expressed mammalian colostrum/milk polypeptides, and chloroplasts, cells and photosynthetic organisms comprising the polypeptides, can be used as and in compositions edible by a mammal (e.g., having both nutritional and therapeutic value).
[0052] In varying embodiments, the milk/colostrum polypeptides are human, non-human primate, bovinae (e.g., cow, bison), ovine, caprine, camelid, human, canine, feline, equine, marsupial, or from any other mammal of interest. The polynucleotide and polypeptide sequences of mammalian homologs of milk/colostrum polypeptides are known in the art. For example, the GenBank Ref. Seq. Accession Nos. for osteopontin polypeptide homologs are NP_000573.1 (human), XP_003434072.1 (canine), XP_003985233.1 (feline), and NP 776612.1 (bovine). For example, mammalian milk/colostrum proteins (e.g., osteopontin, e.g., from a human, canine, or feline) can be produced in a photosynthetic organism (e.g., algae) and subsequently lyophilized and sprinkled onto a food or into a beverage consumable by the mammal (e.g., human, canine, or feline, respectively). In another example, mammalian milk/colostrum proteins (e.g., from a human, canine, feline or equine) produced in a photosynthetic organism (e.g., algae) can be formulated into a wet paste and delivered orally to the mammal (e.g., to the human, canine, feline or equine), e.g., using a syringe. In another example, lyophilized, freeze-dried or spray-dried photosynthetic organisms (e.g., algae) comprising mammalian milk/colostrum polypeptides can be re-suspended in water for oral delivery to the mammal (e.g., to the human, canine, feline or equine), e.g., using a syringe. In another example, lyophilized, freeze-dried, spray-dried or powdered photosynthetic organisms (e.g., algae) comprising mammalian milk/colostrum polypeptides can be sprayed onto or mixed or blended into a food, feed or beverage edible by a mammal (e.g., to the human, canine, feline or equine), e.g., sprayed onto kibble for a non-human mammal.
[0053] Polynucleotides encoding one or more milk/colostrum polypeptides, or immunogenic fragments thereof, can be altered for improved expression in a photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cells. For example, codons in the wild-type polynucleotides encoding one or more milk/colostrum polypeptides rarely used by the photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cell can be replaced with a codon coding for the same or a similar amino acid residue that is more commonly used by the photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cell (i.e., employing algal chloroplast codon bias), thereby allowing for more efficient expression of the milk/colostrum polypeptide and higher yields of the expressed milk/colostrum polypeptide in the photosynthetic host, in comparison to expression of the milk/colostrum polypeptide from the wild-type polynucleotide. Methods for altering polynucleotides for improved expression in a photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cell, particularly in a Chlamydomonas reinhardtii host cell, are known in the art and described in, e.g., Franklin et al (2002) Plant J30:733-744; F1 etcher, et al., Adv Exp Med Biol. (2007) 616:90-8; Heitzer, et al., Adv Exp Med Biol. (2007) 616:46-53; Rasala and Mayfield, Bioeng Bugs. (2011) 2(1):50-4; Rasala, et al, Plant Biotechnol J. (2010) 8(6):719-33; Wu, et al., Bioresour Technol. (2011) 102(3):2610-6; Morton, J Mol Evol. (1993) 37(3):273-80; Morton, J Mol Evol. (1996) 43(1):28-31; and Morton, J Mol Evol. (1998) 46(4):449-59.
[0054] In various embodiments, polynucleotide sequences encoding milk/colostrum polypeptides can be improved for expression in photosynthetic organisms (e.g., algae) by changing codons that are not common in the algae host cell (e.g., used less than .about.20% of the time). A codon usage database of use is found at kazusa.or.jp/codon/. For improved expression of polynucleotide sequences encoding milk/colostrum polypeptides in C. reinhardtii host cells, codons rare or not common to the chloroplast of C. reinhartdii in the native milk/colostrum nucleic acid sequences are reduced or eliminated. A representative codon table summarizing codon usage in the C. reinhartdii chloroplast is found on the interne at kazusa.or.jp/codon/cgi-bin/showcodon.cgi?species=3055.chloroplast. In various embodiments, preferred or more common codons for amino acid residues in C. reinhartdii are as follows:
TABLE-US-00001 Preferred codons for improved Amino Acid Residue expression in algae Ala GCT, GCA Arg CGT Asn AAT Asp GAT Cys TGT Gln CAA Glu GAA Gly GGT Ile ATT His CAT Leu TTA Lys AAA Met ATG Phe TTT Pro CCA Ser TCA Thr ACA, ACT Trp TGG Tyr TAT Val GTT, GTA STOP TAA
[0055] In certain instances, less preferred or less common codons for expression in an algal host cell can be included in a polynucleotide sequence encoding a milk/colostrum polypeptide, for example, to avoid sequences of multiple or extended codon repeats, or sequences of reduced stability (e.g., extended A/T-rich sequences), or having a higher probability of secondary structure that could reduce or interfere with expression efficiency. In various embodiments, the polynucleotide sequence can be synthetically prepared. For example, the desired amino acid sequence of a milk/colostrum polypeptide as described herein can be entered into a software program with algorithms for determining codon usage for a photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cell. Illustrative software includes GeneDesigner available from DNA 2.0, on the internet at dna20.com/genedesigner2.
[0056] In varying embodiments, the polypeptides are phosphorylated. Chloroplast-expressed gene products provide a distinct advantage over those encoded in the nuclear genome, particularly in the case in which phosphorylation contributes to the biologic activity of the end product protein. In varying embodiments, mammalian polypeptides expressed from the chloroplasts of photosynthetic organisms are phosphorylated and bioactive. In varying embodiments, the pattern of phosphorylation of the mammalian polypeptide expressed from the chloroplast is different is different from the pattern of phosphorylation of the mammalian polypeptide expressed from a mammalian cell. In varying embodiments, the one or more mammalian polypeptides are bioactive and phosphorylated at 50% or more, e.g., 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or more, of the amino acid positions that are phosphorylated in the mammalian peptide expressed from a mammalian cell. In some embodiments, the one or more mammalian polypeptides comprises bovine osteopontin and the bovine osteopontin is phosphorylated at one or more amino acids comprising S45, S47, S218, S230, S241, S252 and S259, wherein the amino acid positions are with reference to SEQ ID NO:8 and FIG. 14. In some embodiments, the bovine osteopontin is further phosphorylated at one or more amino acids comprising S48, T51, S85, S88, T93, T94, S100, S103, S106, S109 and S260, wherein the amino acid positions are with reference to SEQ ID NO:8 and FIG. 14. In varying embodiments, the one or more mammalian polypeptides comprises human osteopontin and the human osteopontin is phosphorylated at one or more amino acids comprising Ser20, Ser22, Ser23, Ser58, Ser60, Ser63, Ser81, Ser84, Ser90, Ser99, Ser102, Ser105, Ser108, Ser111, Thr167, Ser173, Ser177, Ser197, Ser201, Ser206, Ser210, Ser216, Ser236, Ser245, Ser249, Ser252, Ser257, Ser273, Ser285, Ser290, and Ser292, wherein the amino acid positions are with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. In some embodiments, the one or more mammalian polypeptides comprises canine osteopontin and the canine osteopontin is phosphorylated at one or more amino acids comprising Thr57, Thr60, Ser153, Ser163, Thr164, Ser174, Ser176, Ser198, Ser207, Ser230, Ser233, Ser237, Ser246, Ser282, Ser289, and Ser290, wherein the amino acid positions are with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. In some embodiments, the one or more mammalian polypeptides comprises feline osteopontin and the feline osteopontin is phosphorylated at one or more amino acids comprising Ser174, Ser176, Ser237, and Ser282, wherein the amino acid positions are with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8.
[0057] In varying embodiments, the polynucleotide sequences encoding the mammalian milk/colostrum polypeptides can further encode a sequence that promotes protein accumulation. Protein accumulation amino acid sequences are known in the art and find use.
[0058] The psbA promoter and untranslated regions (UTRs) supports high levels of recombinant protein accumulation in C. reinhartdii. Accordingly, in varying embodiments, the polynucleotide encoding one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides is operably linked to a polynucleotide encoding a psbA promoter and 5'UTR, an atpA promoter and 5' UTR, or a psbD promoter and 5' UTR. In varying embodiments, the psbA promoter and 5' UTR, an atpA promoter and 5' UTR, a TufA promoter and 5' UTR, a atpB promoter and 5' UTR, or a psbD promoter and 5' UTR. is upstream of the polynucleotide encoding the one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides. In other embodiments the polynucleotide encoding one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides is operably linked to a polynucleotide encoding a psbA 3' UTR or a rbcL 3' UTR that is downstream of the nucleotide sequence encoding one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides. See, e.g., U.S. Patent Publication No. 2012/0309939.
[0059] In varying embodiments, the chloroplasts of photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cells are transformed, e.g., by homologous recombination techniques, to contain and stably express one or more polynucleotides encoding one or more milk/colostrum polypeptides, as described herein, integrated into the chloroplast genome.
[0060] Transformation of the chloroplasts of photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cells can be carried out according to techniques well known to those persons skilled in the art. Examples of such techniques include without limitation electroporation, particle bombardment, cytoplasmic or nuclear microinjection, gene gun. See, e.g., FIG. 2 of WO 2012/170125.
3. Photosynthetic Organisms
[0061] The colostrum/milk polypeptides can be integrated into and expressed from the chloroplast genome of a eukaryotic photosynthetic organism.

Photosynthetic organisms useful for the expression of colostrum/milk polypeptides include, without limitation, higher plant chloroplasts, algae (including microalgae), and cyanobacteria. In varying embodiments, the photosynthetic organism can be eukaryotic (e.g., higher plants and algae, including microalgae and macroalgae) or prokaryotic (e.g., cyanobacteria). Plants of interest include vascular plant (e.g., a brassica, corn, soybean, tobacco, rice, etc), and non-vascular plants (e.g., algae, including microalgae, and mosses).

4. Methods of Producing
[0064] Recombinant expression of proteins from heterologous polynucleotides incorporated into the chloroplast genome of a photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cell, particularly a Chlorophyta (green algae) host cell of the genus Chlamydomonas, in particular Chlamydomonas reinhartdii, is known in the art, finds use, and is described in numerous publications, including, e.g., in Rasala and Mayfield, Bioeng Bugs. (2011) 2(1):50-4; Rasala, et al., Plant Biotechnol J. (2011) May 2, PMID 21535358; Coragliotti, et al., Mol Biotechnol. (2011) 48(1):60-75; Specht, et al., Biotechnol Lett. (2010) 32(10):1373-83; Rasala, et al., Plant Biotechnol J. (2010) 8(6):719-33; Mulo, et al., Biochim Biophys Acta. (2011) May 2, PMID:21565160; and Bonente, et al., Photosynth Res. (2011) May 6, PMID:21547493; U.S. Patent Publication No. 2012/0309939; U.S. Patent Publication No. 2010/0129394; and Intl. Publication No. WO 2012/170125. All of the foregoing references are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes.
[0065] a. Culturing of Cells or Organisms
[0066] Techniques for culturing of microalgae and cyanobacteria and vascular plants for expression of recombinant polypeptides are known in the art and can be used for the production of milk/colostrum polypeptides. The photosynthetic organism containing the recombinant polynucleotides encoding one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides can be grown under conditions which permit photosynthesis, however, this is not a requirement (e.g., a host organism may be grown in the absence of light). In some instances, the host organism may be genetically modified in such a way that its photosynthetic capability is diminished or destroyed. In growth conditions where a host organism is not capable of photosynthesis (e.g., because of the absence of light and/or genetic modification), typically, the organism will be provided with the necessary nutrients to support growth in the absence of photosynthesis. For example, a culture medium in (or on) which an organism is grown, may be supplemented with any required nutrient, including an organic carbon source, nitrogen source, phosphorous source, vitamins, metals, lipids, nucleic acids, micronutrients, and/or an organism-specific requirement. Organic carbon sources include any source of carbon which the host organism is able to metabolize including, but not limited to, acetate, simple carbohydrates (e.g., glucose, sucrose, and lactose), complex carbohydrates (e.g., starch and glycogen), proteins, and lipids. One of skill in the art will recognize that not all organisms will be able to sufficiently metabolize a particular nutrient and that nutrient mixtures may need to be modified from one organism to another in order to provide the appropriate nutrient mix.
[0067] Organisms can be grown on a defined minimal medium (for example, high salt medium (HSM), modified artificial sea water medium (MASM), or F/2 medium) with light as the sole energy source. In other instances, the organism can be grown in a medium (for example, tris acetate phosphate (TAP) medium), and supplemented with an organic carbon source.
[0068] Organisms, such as algae, can grow naturally in fresh water or marine water. Culture media for freshwater algae can be, for example, synthetic media, enriched media, soil water media, and solidified media, such as agar. Various culture media have been developed and used for the isolation and cultivation of fresh water algae and are described in Watanabe, M. W. (2005). Freshwater Culture Media. In R. A. Andersen (Ed.), Algal Culturing Techniques (pp. 13-20). Elsevier Academic Press, 2005. Culture media for marine algae can be, for example, artificial seawater media or natural seawater media. Guidelines for the preparation of media are described in Harrison, P. J. and Berges, J. A. (2005). Marine Culture Media. In R. A. Andersen (Ed.), Algal Culturing Techniques (pp. 21-33). Elsevier Academic Press, 2005.
[0069] Culturing techniques for algae are well known to one of skill in the art and are described, for example, in Freshwater Culture Media. In R. A. Andersen (Ed.), Algal Culturing Techniques. Elsevier Academic Press, 2005. See also, Richmond and Hu, Handbook of Microalgal Culture: Applied Phycology and Biotechnology, Wiley-Blackwell; 2nd edition (Jun. 4, 2013). In varying embodiments, algae can be grown in a bioreactor or a fermenter using either sunlight or reduced carbon as an energy source.
[0070] Chlamydomonas sp., Scenedesmus sp., and Chlorella sp. are illustrative algae that can be cultured as described herein and can grow under a wide array of conditions.
[0071] One organism that can be cultured as described herein is a commonly used laboratory species C. reinhartdii. Cells of this species are haploid, and can grow on a simple medium of inorganic salts, using photosynthesis to provide energy. This organism can also grow in total darkness if acetate is provided as a carbon source. C. reinhartdii can be readily grown at room temperature under standard fluorescent lights. In addition, the cells can be synchronized by placing them on a light-dark cycle. Other methods of culturing C. reinhartdii cells are known to one of skill in the art.
[0072] b. Introduction of Polynucleotide into a Host Organism or Cell
[0073] To generate a genetically modified host cell, a polynucleotide, or a polynucleotide cloned into a vector, is introduced stably or transiently into a host cell, using established techniques, including, but not limited to, electroporation, biolistic, calcium phosphate precipitation, DEAE-dextran mediated transfection, and liposome-mediated transfection. For transformation, a polynucleotide of the present disclosure will generally further include a selectable marker, e.g., any of several well-known selectable markers such as restoration of photosynthesis, or kanamycin resistance or spectinomycin resistance.
[0074] A polynucleotide or recombinant nucleic acid molecule described herein, can be introduced into a cell (e.g., alga cell) using any method known in the art. A polynucleotide can be introduced into a cell by a variety of methods, which are well known in the art and selected, in part, based on the particular host cell. For example, the polynucleotide can be introduced into a cell using a direct gene transfer method such as electroporation or microprojectile mediated (biolistic) transformation using a particle gun, or the "glass bead method," or by pollen-mediated transformation, liposome-mediated transformation, transformation using wounded or enzyme-degraded immature embryos, or wounded or enzyme-degraded embryogenic callus (for example, as described in Potrykus, Ann. Rev. Plant. Physiol. Plant Mol. Biol. 42:205-225, 1991).
[0075] As discussed above, microprojectile mediated transformation can be used to introduce a polynucleotide into a cell (for example, as described in Klein et al., Nature 327:70-73, 1987). This method utilizes microprojectiles such as gold or tungsten, which are coated with the desired polynucleotide by precipitation with calcium chloride, spermidine or polyethylene glycol. The microprojectile particles are accelerated at high speed, into a cell using a device such as the BIOLISTIC PD-1000 particle gun (BioRad; Hercules Calif.). Methods for the transformation using biolistic methods are well known in the art (for example, as described in Christou, Trends in Plant Science 1:423-431, 1996). Microprojectile mediated transformation has been used, for example, to generate a variety of transgenic plant species, including cotton, tobacco, corn, hybrid poplar and papaya. Important cereal crops such as wheat, oat, barley, sorghum and rice also have been transformed using microprojectile mediated delivery (for example, as described in Duan et al., Nature Biotech. 14:494-498, 1996; and Shimamoto, Curr. Opin. Biotech. 5:158-162, 1994). The transformation of most dicotyledonous plants is possible with the methods described above. Transformation of monocotyledonous plants also can be transformed using, for example, biolistic methods as described above, protoplast transformation, electroporation of partially permeabilized cells, introduction of DNA using glass fibers, and the glass bead agitation method.
[0076] The basic techniques used for transformation and expression in photosynthetic microorganisms are similar to those commonly used for E. coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other species. Transformation methods customized for photosynthetic microorganisms, e.g., the chloroplast of a strain of algae, are known in the art. These methods have been described in a number of texts for standard molecular biological manipulation (see Packer & Glaser, 1988, "Cyanobacteria", Meth. Enzymol., Vol. 167; Weissbach & Weissbach, 1988, "Methods for plant molecular biology," Academic Press, New York, Green and Sambrook, Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 4th Ed., Cold Spring Harbor Press, (2012); and Clark M S, 1997, Plant Molecular Biology, Springer, N.Y.). These methods include, for example, biolistic devices (See, for example, Sanford, Trends In Biotech. (1988) .delta.: 299-302, U.S. Pat. No. 4,945,050; electroporation (Fromm et al., Proc. Nat'l. Acad. Sci. (USA) (1985) 82: 5824-5828); use of a laser beam, electroporation, microinjection or any other method capable of introducing DNA into a host cell.
[0077] Plastid transformation is a routine and well known method for introducing a polynucleotide into a plant cell chloroplast (see U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,451,513, 5,545,817, and 5,545,818; WO 95/16783; McBride et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA 91:7301-7305, 1994). In some embodiments, chloroplast transformation involves introducing regions of chloroplast DNA flanking a desired nucleotide sequence, allowing for homologous recombination of the exogenous DNA into the target chloroplast genome. In some instances one to 1.5 kb flanking nucleotide sequences of chloroplast genomic DNA may be used. Using this method, point mutations in the chloroplast 16S rRNA and rps12 genes, which confer resistance to spectinomycin and streptomycin, can be utilized as selectable markers for transformation (Svab et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA 87:8526-8530, 1990), and can result in stable homoplasmic transformants, at a frequency of approximately one per 100 bombardments of target leaves.
[0078] In some embodiments, an alga is transformed with one or more polynucleotides which encode one or more milk/colostrum polypeptides, as described herein. In one embodiment, a transformation may introduce a nucleic acid into a plastid of the host alga (e.g., chloroplast). In another embodiment, a transformation may introduce a second nucleic acid into the chloroplast genome of the host alga. In still another embodiment, a transformation may introduce two protein coding regions into the plastid genome on a single gene, or may introduced two genes on a single transformation vector.
[0079] Transformed cells can be plated on selective media following introduction of exogenous nucleic acids. This method may also comprise several steps for screening. A screen of primary transformants can be conducted to determine which clones have proper insertion of the exogenous nucleic acids. Clones which show the proper integration may be propagated and re-screened to ensure genetic stability. Such methodology ensures that the transformants contain the genes of interest. In many instances, such screening is performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR); however, any other appropriate technique known in the art may be utilized. Many different methods of PCR are known in the art (e.g., nested PCR, real time PCR). For any given screen, one of skill in the art will recognize that PCR components may be varied to achieve optimal screening results. For example, magnesium concentration may need to be adjusted upwards when PCR is performed on disrupted alga cells to which (which chelates magnesium) is added to chelate toxic metals. Following the screening for clones with the proper integration of exogenous nucleic acids, clones can be screened for the presence of the encoded protein(s) and/or products. Protein expression screening can be performed by Western blot analysis and/or enzyme activity assays. Product screening may be performed by any method known in the art, for example mass spectrometry, SDS PAGE protein gels, or HPLC or FPLC chromatography.
[0080] The expression of the colostrum/milk protein can be accomplished by inserting a polynucleotide sequence (gene) encoding the protein or enzyme into the chloroplast genome of a microalgae. The modified strain of microalgae can be made homoplasmic to ensure that the polynucleotide will be stably maintained in the chloroplast genome of all descendants. A microalga is homoplasmic for a gene when the inserted gene is present in all copies of the chloroplast genome, for example. It is apparent to one of skill in the art that a chloroplast may contain multiple copies of its genome, and therefore, the term "homoplasmic" or "homoplasmy" refers to the state where all copies of a particular locus of interest are substantially identical. Plastid expression, in which genes are inserted by homologous recombination into all of the several thousand copies of the circular plastid genome present in each plant cell, takes advantage of the enormous copy number advantage over nuclear-expressed genes to permit expression levels that can readily exceed 10% or more of the total soluble plant protein. The process of determining the plasmic state of an organism of the present disclosure involves screening transformants for the presence of exogenous nucleic acids and the absence of wild-type nucleic acids at a given locus of interest.
[0081] c. Vectors
[0082] Numerous suitable expression vectors are known to those of skill in the art. The following vectors are provided by way of example; for bacterial host cells: pQE vectors (Qiagen), pBluescript plasmids, pNH vectors, lambda-ZAP vectors (Stratagene), pTrc99a, pKK223-3, pDR540, and pRIT2T (Pharmacia); for eukaryotic host cells: pXT1, pSG5 (Stratagene), pSVK3, pBPV, pMSG, pET21a-d(+) vectors (Novagen), and pSVLSV40 (Pharmacia). However, any other plasmid or other vector may be used so long as it is compatible with the host cell. For example, illustrative vectors including without limitation, psbA-kanamycin vector can be used for the expression of one or more milk/colostrum proteins, e.g., in a cyanobacteria or in the plastids of a photosynthetic organism.
[0083] Knowledge of the chloroplast genome of the host organism, for example, C. reinhardtii, is useful in the construction of vectors for use in the disclosed embodiments. Chloroplast vectors and methods for selecting regions of a chloroplast genome for use as a vector are well known (see, for example, Bock, J. Mol. Biol. 312:425-438, 2001; Staub and Maliga, Plant Cell 4:39-45, 1992; and Kavanagh et al., Genetics 152:1111-1122, 1999, each of which is incorporated herein by reference). The entire chloroplast genome of C. reinhardtii is available to the public on the world wide web, at the URL "biology.duke.edu/chlamy_genome/-chloro.html" (see "view complete genome as text file" link and "maps of the chloroplast genome" link; J. Maul, J. W. Lilly, and D. B. Stern, unpublished results; revised Jan. 28, 2002; to be published as GenBank Ace. No. AF396929; and Maul, J. E., et al. (2002) The Plant Cell, Vol. 14 (2659-2679)). Generally, the nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genomic DNA that is selected for use is not a portion of a gene, including a regulatory sequence or coding sequence. For example, the selected sequence is not a gene that if disrupted, due to the homologous recombination event, would produce a deleterious effect with respect to the chloroplast. For example, a deleterious effect on the replication of the chloroplast genome or to a plant cell containing the chloroplast. In this respect, the website containing the C. reinhartdii chloroplast genome sequence also provides maps showing coding and non-coding regions of the chloroplast genome, thus facilitating selection of a sequence useful for constructing a vector (also described in Maul, I. E., et al. (2002) The Plant Cell, Vol. 14 (2659-2679)). For example, the chloroplast vector, p322, is a clone extending from the Eco (Eco RI) site at about position 143.1 kb to the Xho (Xho I) site at about position 148.5 kb (see, world wide web, at the URL "biology.duke.edu/chlamy_genome/chloro.html", and clicking on "maps of the chloroplast genome" link, and "140-150 kb" link; also accessible directly on world wide web at URL "biology. duke. edu/chl am-y/chl o ro/c hl oro140. html").
[0084] For expression of the colostrum/milk polypeptide in a host, an expression cassette or vector may be employed. The expression vector will comprise a transcriptional and translational initiation region, which may be inducible or constitutive, where the coding region is operably linked under the transcriptional control of the transcriptional initiation region, and a transcriptional and translational termination region. These control regions may be native to the gene, or may be derived from an exogenous source. Expression vectors generally have convenient restriction sites located near the promoter sequence to provide for the insertion of nucleic acid sequences encoding exogenous proteins. A selectable marker operative in the expression host may be present in the vector.
[0085] The nucleotide sequences disclosed herein may be inserted into a vector by a variety of methods. In the most common method the sequences are inserted into an appropriate restriction endonuclease site(s) using procedures commonly known to those skilled in the art and detailed in, for example, Green and Sambrook, Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 4th Ed., Cold Spring Harbor Press, (2012) and Ausubel et al., Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons (through 2013).
[0086] Further provided are host cells that can be transformed with vectors. One of skill in the art will recognize that such transformation includes transformation with circular vectors, linearized vectors, linearized portions of a vector, or any combination of the above. Thus, a host cell comprising a vector may contain the entire vector in the cell (in either circular or linear form), or may contain a linearized portion of a vector of the present disclosure.
[0087] d. Colostrum/Milk Protein Expression
[0088] To determine percent total soluble protein, immunoblot signals from known amounts of purified protein can be compared to that of a known amount of total soluble protein lysate. Other techniques for measuring percent total soluble protein are known to one of skill in the art. For example, an ELISA assay or protein mass spectrometry (for example, as described in Varghese, R. S. and Ressom, H. W., Methods Mol. Bio. (2010) 694:139-150) can also be used to determine percent total soluble protein.
[0089] In some embodiments, the one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides are produced in a genetically modified host cell at a level that is at least about 0.5%, at least about 1%, at least about 1.5%, at least about 2%, at least about 2.5%, at least about 3%, at least about 3.5%, at least about 4%, at least about 4.5%, or at least about 5% of the total soluble protein produced by the cell. In other embodiments, the colostrum/milk compound is produced in a genetically modified host cell at a level that is at least about 0.15%, at least about 0.1%, or at least about 1% of the total soluble protein produced by the cell. In other embodiments, the colostrum/milk compound is produced in a genetically modified host cell at a level that is at least about 5%, at least about 10%, at least about 15%, at least about 20%, at least about 25%, at least about 30%, at least about 35%, at least about 40%, at least about 45%, at least about 50%, at least about 55%, at least about 60%, at least about 65%, or at least about 70% of the total soluble protein produced by the cell.
[0090] Expression of the milk/colostrum polypeptides in the photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cell can be detected using any method known in the art, e.g., including immunoassays (ELISA, Western Blot) and/or nucleic acid assays (RT-PCR). Sequences of expressed polypeptides can be confirmed using any method known in the art (e.g., mass spectrometry).
[0091] Milk/colostrum polypeptides expressed in a photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cell are generally properly folded without performing denaturation and refolding. Furthermore, the polypeptides expressed in the chloroplast genome are not glycosylated, so coding sequences do not need to be altered to remove glycosylation sites and glycosylated moieties do not need to be removed post-translationally.
[0092] Milk/colostrum polypeptides expressed in a photosynthetic (e.g., algal chloroplasts and cyanobacteria) host can have a phosphorylation pattern, even if different from the natively expressed protein, allows for bioactivity. Similar polypeptides expressed in the cytoplasm of photosynthetic organisms may not correctly phosphorylated, and thus not biologically active. The phosphorylation machinery of chloroplasts and cyanobacteria can modified to increase or decrease the degree of phosphorylation of a mammalian protein produced in those compartments.
[0093] e. Colostrum/Milk Protein Bioactivity
[0094] The bioactivity of the expressed colostrum milk polypeptides can be determined using any method known in the art. For example, lysozyme bioactivity can be measured by determining the activity of cell lysates or purified polypeptide to effect killing of gram positive bacteria (e.g, micrococcus cells). See, e.g., Ito, et al., Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo). 1992 June; 40(6):1523-6 and Morsky, et al., Anal Biochem. 1983 January; 128(1):77-85. Lactadherin bioactivity can be determined by measuring binding to phosphatidylserine. See, e.g., Otzen, et al., Biochim Biophys Acta. (2012) 1818(4):1019-27; Hou, et al., Vox Sang. 2011 Feb;100(2):187-95 and Dasgupta, et al., Transl Res. 2006 July; 148(1):19-25. The bioactivity of osteopontin can be measured by the ability of osteopontin to adhere to human embryonic 293 cells when in the presence of the divalent cations, Mg.sup.2+ or Mn.sup.2+ but not Ca.sup.2+. See, e.g., Hu, et al, J Biol Chem. (1995) 270(17):9917-25; and Agnihotri, et al., J Biol Chem (2001) 276:28261-28267. CD14 bioactivity can be determined by measuring binding to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). See, e.g., Wright, et al., Science. 1990 Sep. 21; 249(4975):1431-3. Cathelicidin-1 activity can be determined using an antimicrobial assay and measuring luminescence. See, e.g., Sue, et al. Infect Immun. 2000 May; 68(5) 2748-2755. MAA bioactivity can be determined by measuring the induction of mucin3 expression by intestinal epithelial cells. See, e.g. Manuell. et al., Plant Biotechnology J, 2007 May; 5(3):402-12. Lingual antimicrobial peptide (LAP) and cathelicidin-1 bioactivity can be determined by measuring bactericidial activity. See, Tomasinsig, et al., J Pept Sci. 2012 Feb;18(2):105-13. Alpha-lactalbumin bioactivity can be determined by measuring lactase synthase activity. See, Fitzgerald, et al., Anal Biochem. 1970 July; 36(1):43-61. The bioactivity of a polypeptide is determined in a test assay known in the art and the bioactivity of the test polypeptide can be compared to a positive control (e.g., a known bioactive polypeptide or a native polypeptide) and a negative control (e.g., no peptide or a known biologically inactive polypeptide). In varying embodiments, colostrum/milk polypeptides produced in the chloroplast of photosynthetic organisms are characterized by at least 50%, 75%, 85%, 90%, 95% 98%, 99% and even up to 100% of the level of bioactivity of the natural colostrum-derived counterpart protein.
5. Compositions
[0095] Further provided are compositions comprising the one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides. Generally, the colostrum/milk polypeptides need not be purified or isolated from the host cell. A distinct advantage of the compositions and methods described herein is that administration of the bioactive protein-expressing organism, without purification or isolation, to a patient, e.g., a human or non-human mammal, confers a clinical or nutritional benefit. For example, administration of photosynthetic organisms comprising chloroplast-expressed milk/colostrum polypeptides, e.g. osteopontin, to the gastrointestinal tract, e.g., orally, and is efficiently absorbed and assimilated into bodily tissues such as bone and immune cells. Accordingly, in varying embodiments, the compositions comprise the photosynthetic (e.g., algal) host cells which have been engineered to express one or more colostrum/milk polypeptides. In varying embodiments, the compositions are edible by a mammal. The edible compositions can take the form of a liquid or beverage (e.g., infant formula), a food, a feed (e.g., kibble), a food supplement, a nutraceutical (e.g., a pill). In varying embodiments, the compositions comprise a compressed algal cake (e.g., a compressed solid mass of algal cells), algal paste and/or algal powder. In varying embodiments, the compositions are lyophilized or spray dried. In some embodiments, the photosynthetic organisms (e.g., algae) are lyophilized or spray-dried prior to the addition to an edible composition, e.g., a food, beverage or tablet consumable by a mammal, e.g., a human, a canine, a feline. In some embodiments, the photosynthetic organisms (e.g., algae) are formulated into a wet paste prior to the addition to an edible composition, e.g., a food, beverage or tablet consumable by a mammal, e.g., a human, a canine, a feline. In some embodiments, the photosynthetic organisms (e.g., algae) are formulated into a powder to be sprinkled onto or into an edible composition, e.g., a food, beverage or tablet consumable by a mammal, e.g., a human, a canine, a feline. In some embodiments the photosynthetic organisms (e.g., algae) are blended or mixed into an edible composition, e.g., a food, beverage or tablet consumable by a mammal, e.g., a human, a canine, a feline.
EXAMPLES
[0096] The following examples are offered to illustrate, but not to limit the claimed invention.
Example 1
Chloroplast Expression of Osteopontin
[0097] A cDNA encoding for bovine osteopontin was synthesized in C. reinhartdii chloroplast codon bias and ligated into a C. reinhartdii chloroplast transformation vector. This vector directed the osteopontin cDNA into the chloroplast genome via homologous recombination and allowed the cDNA to directly replace the psbA gene. This vector also contained regulatory elements, promoters and untranslated regions (UTRs) that ensure the stable expression and translation of the osteopontin mRNA.
[0098] The transformation vector containing the osteopontin cDNA was introduced into the chloroplast genome by first coating the vector onto 1 .mu.M gold particles and then shooting the gold particles into C. reinhartdii cells that had been plated on Tris-Acetate-phosphate (TAP) plates containing 100 .mu.g/mL kanamycin with a particle gun from Bio-Rad laboratory. Places were incubated in the dark for 24 hours followed by an incubation in light with an intensity of 4000 lux for 2 weeks. Transformed algae formed colonies following the incubation. Colonies from the transformation was patched onto TAP plates containing 150 .mu.g/mL kanamycin.
[0099] To ensure that colonies from algal chloroplast transformations contained our gene of interest PCR gene screens were done using a forward primer, 5'-gtgctaggtaactaacgtttgattttt-3', that anneals to the untranslated region of the psbA gene that is used to drive the accumulation of the osteopontin protein and a reverse primer, 5'-CTGAATCACCACGACCATCATTAGC-3', that anneals to the chloroplast codon optimized osteopontin cDNA. The PCR yields a product that is 500 bp. The chloroplast also contains up to 80 copies of its genome. To ensure that the osteopontin gene is integrated into all copies of the chloroplast genome, a PCR screen was done to ensure that the gene that was being replaced was completely removed. Two sets of primers were used: 1. A control set of primers to ensure that the PCR worked, amplifies the DNA that encodes for the 16srRNA with a forward primer 5'-ccgaactgaggttgggttta-3' and a reverse primer 5'-GGGGGAGCGAATAGGATTAG-3'. 2. A set of primers to amplify the MAA gene that currently resided in the psbA locus of the untransformed strain with a forward primer 5% gtgctaggtaactaacgtttgattttt--3' and a reverse primer 5'-TCTTCACGTACTTGGTCACGTGTCATACC-3'. The loss of the MAA PCR product indicates a strain that is homoplasmic for osteopontin.
[0100] Homoplasmic cell lines were grown to a final volume of 20L and harvested by continuous flow centrifugation. To isolate the osteopontin proteins from the C. reinhartdii cell, the harvested cells were re-suspended in a buffer that contained 50 mM Tris-HCl pH8.0, 400 mM NaCl, and 0.5% Tween 20. Cells were lysed at 4.degree. C. by sonication with an amplitude of 25% with a pulse of 30 seconds followed by a rest period of 30 seconds. The sonication cycle was repeated for a total of 16 minutes.
[0101] Once lysed, cell debris, insoluble proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates were separated by centrifugation at 20,000 g for 15 mins at 4.degree. C. Once separated soluble protein was mixed with 1 mL of anti-M2-F1 ag resin. Algal total soluble lysate and resin were allowed to mix for 1 hour. Following the binding of the osteopontin protein to the anti-M2-flag resin, resin was washed and unbound fractions removed. Osteopontin protein was eluted from the flag resin using an elution buffer that contains 100 mM glycine-HCl pH3.5 and 400 mM NaCl. Elutions were analyzed by Western blot to ensure the presence of the protein (FIG. 11). Protein was concentrated and used for Mass spectrometry LC-LC-MS analysis to identify the protein as authentic osteopontin (FIG. 14). Mass spectrometry was used to identify if any osteopontin amino acids were phosphorylated in the chloroplast produced protein (FIG. 14B). A number of amino acids could be identified as being phosphorylated, and all of these appear to be the same amino acids that are phosphorylated in the native bovine protein (FIG. 14B). This unexpected result demonstrated that chloroplasts are able to recognize mammalian phosphorylation signals and correctly add phosphates at only the appropriate amino acids on the osteopontin protein. Osteopontin produced in algae by translation in the cytoplasm from a nuclear encoded gene is not phosphorylated in algae cells.
[0102] To determine if osteopontin was bioactive a cell adhesion assay was performed. Increasing concentrations of osteopontin (1.7 nM tp 1700 nM) were coated in a 96-well microtiter plate. Once coated 1.times.10.sup.4 293 kidney cells were incubated in the wells with RPMI media that was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 2mM MgCl.sub.2. Unbound cells were then washed off with PBS followed by the addition of 100 .mu.L of RPMI media that was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Immediately, 10 .mu.L of a wst-8 reagent (Cell counting kit -8) was added to each well to determine what percentage of cells that were bound to the plate compared to the controls (FIG. 16). As a control a well had no cells added and another well had the total number of cells added to represent 100% adherence.
Example 2
Chloroplast Expression of Lactadherin
[0103] A cDNA encoding for bovine lactadherin was synthesized in C. reinhartdii chloroplast codon bias and ligated into a C. reinhartdii chloroplast transformation vector. This vector directed the lactadherin cDNA into the chloroplast genome via homologous recombination and allowed the cDNA to directly replace the psbA gene. This vector also contained regulatory elements, untranslated regions (UTRs) that ensure the stable expression of the lactadherin mRNA.
[0104] The transformation vector containing the lactadherin cDNA was introduced into the chloroplast genome by first coating the vector onto 1 .mu.M gold particles and then shooting the gold particles into C. reinhartdii cells that had been plated on Tris-Acetate-phosphate (TAP) plates containing 100 .mu.g/mL kanamycin with a particle guy from Bio-Rad laboratory. Places were incubated in the dark for 24 hours followed by an incubation in light with an intensity of 4000 lux for 2 weeks. Transformed algae formed colonies following the incubation. Colonies from the transformation was patched onto TAP plates containing 150 .mu.g/mL kanamycin.
[0105] To ensure that colonies from algal chloroplast transformations contained our gene of interest PCR gene screens were done using a forward primer, 5'-gtgctaggtaactaacgtttgattttt-3', that anneals to the untranslated region of the psbA gene that is used to drive the accumulation of the lactadherin protein and a reverse primer, 5'-CCTGAAGTCCAAGCATTAACAATACC-3', that anneals to the chloroplast codon optimized cDNA. The PCR yields a product that is 500 bp (FIG. 12). The chloroplast also contains up to 80 copies of its genome. To ensure that the gene that lactadherin is integrated into all copies of the chloroplast genome a PCR screen was done to ensure that the gene being replaced was completely removed. Two sets of primers were used: 1. A control set of primers to ensure that the PCR worked amplifies the DNA that encodes for the 16 srRNA with a forward primer 5'-ccgaactgaggttgggttta-3' and a reverse primer 5'-GGGGGAGCGAATAGGATTAG-3'. 2. A set of primers to amplify the MAA gene that currently resided in the psbA locus of the untransformed strain with a forward primer 5'-gtgctaggtaactaacgtttgattttt--3' and a reverse primer 5'-TCTTCACGTACTTGGTCACGTGTCATACC-3'. The loss of the MAA PCR product indicates a strain that is homoplasmic for lactadherin.
[0106] Homoplasmic cell lines were grown to a final volume of 20L and harvested by continuous flow centrifugation. The lactadherin proteins were purified from the C. reinhardtii cell by re-suspending the cell pellet in a buffer that contained 50 mM Tris-HCl pH8.0, 400 mM NaCl, and 0.5% Tween 20. Cells were lysed at 4.degree. C. by sonication with an amplitude of 25% with a pulse of 30 seconds followed by a rest period of 30 seconds. The sonication cycle was repeated for a total of 16 minutes.
[0107] Once lysed cell debris, insoluble proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates were separated by centrifugation at 20,000 g for 15mins at 4.degree. C. Once separated soluble protein was mixed with 1 mL of anti-M2-F1 ag resin. Algal total soluble lysate and resin were allowed to mix for 1 hour. Following the binding of the lactadherin protein to the anti-M2-flag resin, resin was washed and unbound fractions removed. Lactadherin protein was eluted from the flag resin using an elution buffer that contains 100 mM glycine-HCl pH3.5 and 400 mM NaCl. Elutions were analyzed by Western blot to ensure the presence of the protein (FIG. 12). Protein was concentrated and used for Mass spectrometry LC-LC-MS analysis to identify the protein as lactadherin. Mass spectrometry was also used to identify any phosphorylated amino acids. No phosphorylated amino acids were identified in lactadherin.
[0108] To determine whether algal chloroplast-expressed lactadherin is bioactive, an activity assay was performed. Lactadherin contains a phosphatidylserine-binding domain is required for the protein's function in cell adhesion. FIG. 16 illustrates bioactivity of lactadherin expressed from the chloroplast genome in binding to phosphatidylserine. Microtiter plates were coated with 3 .mu.g/ml of phosphatidyl-L-serine in methanol and methanol allowed to evaporate. Increasing titers of lactadherin from 30 nM up to 350 nM of lactadherin-FLAG were incubated with immobilized phosphatidyl-L-serine for 1 hour. Following incubation unbound protein was washed from the wells. The amount of bound FLAG-tagged protein was quantitated using anti-FLAG antibodies conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Lactadherin binds to phosphatidylserine, indicating that algae chloroplast expressed lactadherin is bioactive.
Example 3

[0109] A gene coding for bovine osteopontin was placed in a DNA vector allowing for the recombinant gene to be transcribed and subsequently translated into the osteopontin protein. FIG. 17 demonstrates the production of osteopontin in the cyanobacteria Anabaena. Osteopontin protein was detected on the Western blots using an anti-osteopontin antibody. Lane 1 contains wild-type anabaena while lanes 2 and lanes 3 contain a transgenic anabaena strain expressing a recombinant gene coding for the chloroplast codon optimized osteopontin gene. Lanes 4 and lanes 5 contain a transgenic anabaena strain expressing a recombinant gene coding for the nuclear optimized osteopontin gene. Lane 6 contains a transgenic C. reinhartdii strain expressing osteopontin in the chloroplast that is serving as the positive control. FIG. 18 demonstrates the expression of osteopontin in two additional cyanobacteria strains (Leptolyngbya and Synechocystis 6803). Western blots were probed with an anti-osteopontin antibody. Lane 1 contains a transgenic C. reinhartdii strain expressing osteopontin in the chloroplast that is serving as the positive control. Lane 2 is the protein ladder. Lane 3 is the wild-type Leptolyngba negative control. Lane 3 and lane 4 are transgenic Leptolyngba strains expressing a nuclear codon optimized osteopontin gene. Lane 5 is a wild-type Synechocystis 6803 that is serving as a negative control. Lane 6 and lane 7 contain a transgenic Synechocystis. 6803 strain expressing a recombinant gene coding for the chloroplast codon optimized osteopontin gene. Lanes 8 and lanes 9 contain a transgenic Synechocystis 6803 strain expressing a recombinant gene coding for the nuclear optimized osteopontin gene. FIG. 19 demonstrates the production of MAA in the cyanobacteria anabaena. Western blots were detected with an anti-MAA antibody. Lane 1 contains a transgenic C. reinhartdii strain expressing the MAA protein in the chloroplast. Lane 2 contains wild-type anabaena which serves as a negative control. Lane 3 contains a transgenic anabaena strain that is expressing a nuclear codon optimized MAA gene. FIG. 20 is a Western blot demonstrating the production of MAA in the cyanobacteria, Synechococcus elongates 7942. Lane 1 contains the wild-type Synechococcus elongates 7942 serving as a negative control. Lane 2 containes a transgenic Synechococcus elongates 7942 strain that is expressing the MAA recombinant gene that has not been induced by F41. Lane 3 containes a transgenic Synechococcus elongates 7942 strain that is expressing the MAA recombinant gene that has been induced by F41.
Example 4
Co-Expression of Nuclear Mammary Associated Serum Amyloid A3 (MAA) and Chloroplast Osteopontin in Chloroplast
[0110] A cDNA encoding for bovine osteopontin was synthesized in C. reinhartdii chloroplast codon bias and ligated into a C. reinhartdii chloroplast transformation vector. The transformation vector containing the osteopontin cDNA was introduced into the chloroplast genome of C. reinhartdii cells by particle bombardment. Transformed algae formed colonies following two weeks incubation.
[0111] To ensure that colonies from algal chloroplast transformations contained our gene of interest PCR gene screens were done using a forward primer, 5'-gtgctaggtaactaacgtttgattitt-3' and a reverse primer, 5'-GGGGGAGCGAATAGGATTAG-3'. The PCR yields a product that is approximately 700 bp. To ensure that the osteopontin is integrated into all copies of the chloroplast genome a PCR screen was done to ensure that the gene that was being replaced was completely removed. Two sets of primers were used: 1. A control set of primers to ensure that the PCR reaction worked with a forward primer 5'-ccgaactgaggttgggttta-3' and a reverse primer 5'-GGGGGAGCGAATAGGATTAG-3' and a set of primers to amplify the MAA gene that resided in the psbA locus of the untransformed strain with a forward primer 5'-ggaaggggaggacgtaggtacataaa-3' and a reverse primer 5'-ttagaacgtgttttgttcccaat-3'. The loss of the MAA PCR product indicates a strain that is homoplasmic for osteopontin.
[0112] A cDNA encoding for bovine MAA was synthesized in C. reinhartdii nuclear codon bias and ligated into a C. reinhartdii nuclear transformation vector. The transformation vector containing the MAA cDNA was introduced into the nuclear genome of the homoplasmic osteopontin-transformed strain by electroporating it into C. reinhartdii cells. Transformed algae formed colonies following the incubation. Thus, the osteopontin expression construct was stably transformed into the chloroplast genome and the MAA expression cassette was transformed into the nuclear genome of the same cell.
[0113] Clones were checked by Western blot for the presence of both the MAA protein using an anti-MAA antibody and the osteopontin protein using an anti-flag antibody (FIG. 21). Clones 1-6 of FIG. 22 demonstrate strains of algae that produce both the MAA protein and the osteopontin protein.
