Methods of using a transposon as an insertional mutagen are provided. Also provided is a transgenic animal that includes polynucleotides encoding a transposon and transposase that can be used to identify genomic sequences. The methods and transgenic animals may be used to detect cancer-related genes by identifying common insertion sites in tumor cells.
