1. A method of preparing transformed Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis) bacteria to produce interferon gamma (IFNγ) comprising steps of:
a) digesting a plasmid containing IFNγ with restriction enzymes NcoI and XbaI to form a digested product,
b) purifying the digested product to form a first purified product;
c) digesting a plasmid pNZ8149 with restriction enzymes NcoI and XbaI;
d) purifying the plasmid pNZ8149 from an agarose gel to form a second purified product;
e) ligating the first and second purified products from steps b) and d) with ligase to form a ligated plasmid;
f) dialyzing the ligated plasmid; and
g) transforming electrocompetent L. lactis bacteria NZ3900 with the ligated plasmid to form a transformed L. lactis bacteria having the accession number RGM 2416 comprising SEQ ID NO: 1, wherein SEQ ID NO: 1 is a DNA construct P1-USP45-IFNγ-GGG-6×His, wherein the DNA construct is within the plasmid pNZ8149, and
wherein
P1 is a L. lactis constitutive expression promoter;
Usp45 is a secretion signal;
IFNγ is the mature mRNA coding sequence for Salmo salar interferon gamma that is codon optimized for expression in L. lactis;
GGG is a sequence coding for three glycines; and
6×His is a sequence coding for 6 terminal histidines.
