Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of sequencing a target nucleic acid molecule having a plurality of bases. In its principle, the temporal order of base additions during the polymerization reaction is measured on a molecule of nucleic acid, i.e., the activity of a nucleic acid polymerizing enzyme on the templage nucleic acid molecule to be sequenced is followed in real-time. The sequence is deduced by identifying which base is being incorporated into the growing complementary strand of the target nucleic acid by the catalytic activity of the nucleic acid polymerizing enzyme at each step in the sequence of base additions. A polymerase on the target nucleic acid molecule complex is provided in a position suitable to move along the target nucleic acid molecule and extend the oligonucleotide primer at an active site. A plurality of labelled types of nucleotide analogs are provided proximate to the active site, with each distinguishable type of nucleotide analog being complementary to a different nucleotide in the target nucleic acid sequence. The growing nucleic acid strand is extended by using the polymerase to add a nucleotide analog to the nucleic acid strand at the active site, where the nucleotide analog being added is complementary to the nucleotide of the target nucleic acid at the active site. The nucleotide analog added to the oligonucleotide primer as a result of the polymerizing step is identified. The steps of providing labelled nucleotide analogs, polymerizing the growing nucleic acid strand, and identifying the added nucleotide analog are repeated so that the nucleic acid strand is further extended and the sequence of the target nucleic acid is determined.

Abstract: A method for encoding analog signals for storage or transmission purposes, particularly for the digital recording of audio signals in studio devices, samples periodic values of the analog signals and converts the sampled values into pulse-code modulation code words. Successive pulse-code modulation code words are transformed by means of subtraction into pulse-code modulation difference code words and, together with additional auxiliary code elements, form a reference code word having a selected constant length. A reduction of the digital signal flow is achieved as a result of the reference code word, including the auxiliary code elements, being selected shorter than the maximum possible length of a pulse-code modulation difference code word. The generated pulse-code modulation difference code words are continuously monitored as to length, and upon the identification of a difference code word having an excess length, that is, greater than the reference code word, either the excess-length difference code word is abbreviated or is replaced by a pulse-code modulation code word of suitable length.
