  1. Exponential technologies forreading & writing genomes 4-4:10 PM 18-Nov-2008 Clean Energy University Spin Out Panel Thanks to:

  3. Photovoltaics vs Photosynthesis Energy efficiency for photovoltaics at 10-40% and 11% for photosynthesis, but the first is peak performance and ignores storage, while the latter is calculated from grams of biofuel per hectare per year (including night & winter). Energy Density: Lithium ion Battery 0.7 kJ/g (Bio)Diesel fuel 43 kJ/g Atmospheric CO2 is adressed by few energy sources Total : 2E18 g 1% added by human activities 15% removed by photosynthesis yearly (algae 30X more efficient) Agricultural biomass: 3% of the total & 15% yearly change

  4. CO2 reduction “to preserve a planet similar to that on which civilization developed .. CO2 will need to be reduced from its current 385 ppm to at most 350 ppm.” 9% = 2E17 g USA: 7E9 meters of highways* 3E6 g/m = 2E16 g James Hansen, et al. Open Atmospheric Science Journal, 2: 217-231 (2008) CO2 maintenance:2% of arable land to replace all petro-fuel with algal (US 40K km2) vs farm animals 80%

  6. Algal, fungal pathways to triglycerides, alkanes, olefins, terpenes Botryococcus braunii decarbonylase Methylelcosene from Prasiola stipitata http://www.biofuelsdatabase.org/map/alkane-decarbonylation_map.shtml http://www.springerlink.com/content/p6451qx982638856/fulltext.pdf

  8. Improving process yield, health, safety: What threatens all biological systems? What do all viruses have in common? or lack?

  9. New genetic code: viral-resistance, novel amino acidsno functional GMO DNA exchange PEG-pAcPhe-hGH (Ambrx) high serum stability 314 TAG to TAA changes 4 Isaacs Charalel Church Sun Wang Carr Jacobson Kong Sterling 1 3 2

  10. DNA technology tracked Moore’s law (2X / 2 yr) until 2004-8 (10X / yr) $/bp 40X 98% genome $5K in 2008 ($50 for 1%?)
