ENGINEERING TOMORROW'S ENZYMES, TODAY

Like every gem, every solution we create is shaped with intention.

 

Know more

At Kura Biotech, we believe that innovation begins with raw potential—hidden in the genetic code of nature. Cantera™, our protein engineering platform, was created to uncover, shape, and evolve that potential into high-performance enzymatic solutions.

The name Cantera™ refers to the place where uncut stone is extracted and refined—transformed into something of lasting value. That same transformation—from biological possibility to biotechnological precision—is at the heart of everything we do.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. At Cantera™, every enzyme is the result of custom processes, rational design, and a deep understanding of an specific challenge.

Every project begins as a rough stone.

Our role is to carve it—facet by facet—until its full potential comes to light.

Discover The Facets of Cantera™

Intelligent Discovery

We mine protein space using advanced bioinformatics and machine learning tools—searching for what others overlook.
Our intelligence doesn’t just predict. It prioritizes, refines, and builds on evidence.

Strategic Design

We craft rational, project-specific libraries. Whether it’s fidelity, activity, stability, or speed—every mutation has a reason. Every decision is backed by a hypothesis.

Accelerated Learning

High-throughput automated screening platforms validate designs efficiently, allowing us to learn faster, become smarter, and gain insights from both successful and unsuccessful results.
Each round makes us smarter. Each cycle moves us closer to optimal performance.

Ownable Innovation

From the start, we analyze the intellectual property landscape.
We don’t just solve problems—we make sure every solution can be protected and commercialized.

System Thinking

Enzymes don’t operate in isolation.
We design with buffers, conditions, and workflows in mind—because context defines performance.

Boutique Partnership

A focused team, flexible execution, and true scientific collaboration. That’s our model.

How We Engineer

What Makes Us Different

Lean By Design

We tailor every project to its budget, using in silico tools and focused experiments to build smart libraries with precision. Our modular, agile setup avoids excess overhead, delivering only what’s needed. Each round provides clear, actionable results—so progress happens only where it matters, with resources focused entirely on moving the enzyme closer to its goal.

Built for Collaboration

We co-design novel enzymes for genomics, proteomics, and DNA synthesis, customizing for efficiency, yield, or stability. Each project is shaped around your needs, budget, and definition of success. Our scientists work as an extension of your team, focused on solving problems—not ticking boxes—with speed, relevance, and real-world impact.

Beyond the Enzyme

We design enzymes with real-world function in mind—from day one. That means thinking beyond the sequence: buffers, workflows, and application context are all part of the equation. Our team brings deep expertise in assay development, system integration, and formulation—so we can optimize not just the enzyme but the environment it needs to perform.
