BERAC Advisory Committee Meeting April 30, 2004 John Houghton John.Houghton@science.doe.gov
2. Energy Bill (not passed) Requires Roadmap
(c) PLAN (1) DEVELOPMENT OF PLAN.Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall prepare and transmit to Congress a research plan describing how the program authorized pursuant to this section will be undertaken to accomplish the program goals established in subsection (b). (2) REVIEW OF PLAN.The Secretary shall contract with the National Academy of Sciences to review the research plan developed under this sub-section. The Secretary shall transmit the review to Congress not later than 18 months after transmittal of the research plan under paragraph (1), along with the Secretarys response to the recommendations contained in the review. NSF recently advised to make more use of roadmaps for facilities

Selected Clean Energy Capabilities
Protein production Improved heterologous expression. Suite of heterologous expession hosts (i.e., control the redox state, codon usage, small molecule partners, and recombinant production of metal-containing proteins). Assays Measure target metabolite in situ (# per cell). Design assays to match cellular milieu. Activity-based assays. Rational design of molecular machines Survey diversity of hydrogenases or glycosyl hydrolyses. Full characterization of partners, energetics, structures, PTMs, etc. Computation tools for rational design/recombination.
9. Selected Clean Energy Technology Requirements
Imaging Needs: Single Molecule Sensitivity Molecular to >cm scale, 3-D resolution High sensitivity and spatial resolution MR including phosphorus and 13C X-Ray and Electron based microscopies High sensitivity optical with enhanced spatial resolution Imaging of opaque samples The ability to make multiple assays simultaneously Combined scanning probe (AFM, STM, nano-sensor) and optical imaging Simultaneous use of multiple optical probes Two/Three Photon, CARS, High-Speed, SERS, FRET, FLASH, etc. Simultaneous MR/Confocal and Scanning-MS/Confocal Real-time, 3-D measures of time and spatial distributions Redox potential, protein & metabolite concentrations, lipids, energetic species, cofactors, etc. Molecular probes Highly sensitive, multiple analytes, functionally sensitive, inert, and accessible to the cell interior. Affordable and accessible Tools User facilities should foster the development and export of easily usable versions of new technologies.
