The neu Gene: an erb B-Homologous Gene Distinct from and Unlinked to the Gene Encoding the EGF Receptor
Abstract
The neu oncogene, identified in ethylnitrosourea-induced rat neuroglioblastomas, had strong homology with the erb B gene that encodes the epidermal growth factor receptor. This homology was limited to the region of erb B encoding the tyrosine kinase domain. It was concluded that the neu gene is a distinct novel gene, as it is not coamplified with sequences encoding the EGF receptor in the genome of the A431 tumor line and it maps to human chromosome 17.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
