Species Overview

The preeminent mammalian model organism in biomedical research. Originally from Central Asia, now cosmopolitan. Adults weigh 12–40 g with a 7–10 cm body and a scaly tail of similar length. Fur is grayish-brown dorsally, lighter ventrally. Mice are nocturnal, omnivorous, and extraordinarily prolific (5–10 litters/year, 3–14 pups each, gestation ~19–21 days). Thousands of inbred strains (C57BL/6, BALB/c, etc.), knockout, transgenic, and humanized lines exist. The genome was sequenced in 2002 (2n=40, ~2.7 Gb), with ~23,000 protein-coding genes sharing extensive homology with humans. They are indispensable in genetics, immunology, oncology, neuroscience, developmental biology, and drug testing. Laboratory mice live 2–3 years; wild mice 1–2 years. Their small size, low cost, rapid breeding, and genetic tractability (CRISPR, Cre-lox) make them the backbone of modern biology. Nobel Prizes in physiology/medicine have been awarded for discoveries using mouse genetics. They are also a major global pest in agriculture and food storage.
