Abstract: The present invention proposes a new method and apparatus for the enhancement of source coding
systems. The invention employs bandwidth reduction 101 prior to or in the encoder 103, followed by
spectral-band replication 105 at the decoder 107. This is accomplished by the use of new transposition
methods, in combination with spectral envelope adjustments. Reduced bitrate at a given perceptual
quality or an improved perceptual quality at a given bitrate is offered. The invention is preferably
integrated in a hardware or software codec, but can also be implemented as a separate processor in
combination with a codec. The invention offers substantial improvements practically independent of
codec type and technological progress.

Abstract: The present invention relates to genes and genes clusters which are expressed in a tissue specific manner. For example, the invention relates to a group of genes encoding GPCR-like receptors that are involved in the function and activity of the immune system. These genes are organized into a discrete cluster at chromosomal location 1q22 (the “immune gene complex”) and span about 700 kb of DNA. The region closest to the centromere comprises genes that are expressed predominantly in the thymus, while the distal region comprises genes which are expressed predominantly in the bone marrow and other hematopoietic cells. Another cluster of GPCR genes is located at chromosomal band 11q24. These genes are expressed predominantly in pancreatic tissue, establishing this region of chromosome 11 as a unique gene complex involved in pancreatic function. A cluster of transmembrane and GPCR-type receptor genes is also located at chromosomal band 11q12.2. These genes are expressed predominantly in the spleen (hence, “spleen gene” cluster), as well as other tissues of the immune and reticuloendothelial system (RES), indicating that establishing this region of the chromosome is involved is spleen, lymphoid, and/or reticuloendothelial function. Finally, genes coding for membrane proteins have been identified which are expressed selectively in bone marrow, kidney, pancreas, and retina.
