The Gene Cryptor

As its name suggests, the Gene Cryptor is a virus, able to encrypt specific genetic information inside genes. The original strain was invented to design an extremely accurate tool for genetic engineering. More or less predictably, the virus mutated and escaped the laboratory, proving itself capable of infecting humans and causing epidemics with a wide variety of symptoms, depending on the affected genes and the viral titer. Currently, there is no conclusive concept on how to create an efficient cure, but strong evidence suggests that the virus may slowly vanish and disappear on its own.
