Meet CRIS-PURR!
Named after the revolutionary CRISPR technology, CRIS-PURR is no ordinary cat—he’s a gene-editing mastermind and the driving force of innovation at KACTUS!
Made 'Super' by the power of Cas9
CRIS-PURR started out as the lab's pest control expert, chasing down mice and keeping the labs at KACTUS free of intruders.
One day, he wandered a bit too close to an active CRISPR experiment.
As the CRISPR-Cas9 system was in action, a mix of curiosity and a bit of luck transformed him. CRIS-PURR suddenly gained the extraordinary power to make genetic edits himself!
Mastering DNA with CRIS-PURR accuracy
Now, CRIS-PURR is known for his precision and ability to “snip and edit” DNA with the flick of his paw.
But that’s not all - his keen accuracy enables scientists to make breakthroughs faster than ever before, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in gene therapy and research!
Cat-alyzing tomorrow's gene therapies
Today, you'll often find CRIS-PURR darting between research stations, his handy pawket-sized scissors are always ready to make precise edits to any genetic code he encounters.
Whether it's advancing gene therapy, curing diseases, or helping innovative ideas take shape, CRIS-PURR is the go-to cat for getting things done with speed and precision.
