Almost 16 years ago, the research groups of Robert Weinberg and Kumao Toyoshima simultaneously published the complete cDNA sequences of rat and human epithelial growth factor type-1 receptors (HER-2/neu) (1,2). The cDNA sequences, first presented at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in 1993, have since had no modified versions reported1. We now show that the
