Research compound
Snap-8
Snap-8 (CAS 868844-74-0) is a synthetic octapeptide that reproduces the N-terminal region of SNAP-25, enabling competitive interference with SNARE complex assembly at the molecular level. Its characterized mechanism is occupancy of the SNAP-25 binding site within the SNARE bundle, reducing vesicle docking and acetylcholine-laden vesicle fusion efficiency in neuromuscular junction culture models without requirement for enzymatic activity. The compound is the reference pharmacological tool for mechanistic dissection of vesicle exocytosis and SNARE protein interaction studies in neuronal cell systems. Supplied lyophilized for in vitro research use only.
