Number of animals aged, tumor incidence, and the number of VSTs varied by strain. VST data are broken down by results of genomic alignments and clustering analysis. VSTs that gave no significant BLAST result or mapped to repeat sequences were excluded from further study. Significant BLAST results were analyzed for clustering and multiple hit CISs were constructed. Several multiple-hit CISs were excluded as likely endogenous insertion sites. The remaining nonclustering single hits were compared to other viral mutation cancer screens to identify single-hit CISs (single hits in this screen that map to the location of previously identified CIS)
