Also provided are methods of growing and preparingbiomass for administration to a mammal in need of treatment of GI tract diseases and conditions and/or symptoms associated with such diseases and conditions.

Method of treating alimentary canal conditions

Provided herein are methods for obtaining purified recombinant osteopontin (rOPN) from cultures of transgenic microalgae, as well as nutritional supplements from such cultures.

Method of purification of recombinant osteopontin from micro algae

Provided are chloroplasts engineered to recombinantly express mammalian colostrum and milk polypeptides, photosynthetic organisms containing such chloroplasts, and compositions comprising such organisms and methods for producing such organisms. In certain embodiments, provided is a chloroplast comprising one or more polynucleotides encoding one or more mammalian milk or colostrum polypeptides selected from osteopontin, lactadherin, cathelicidin-1, lysozyme, lactoperoxidase, lingual antimicrobial peptide (LAP), alpha-lactalbumin, and soluble CD14.
