About SNAP-8

SNAP-8, also known as Acetyl Octapeptide-3, is a synthetic eight-amino-acid peptide developed as an extended analog of the acetyl hexapeptide family. It is studied as a model compound for neuromuscular signaling at the synapse, particularly the SNARE-complex machinery involved in vesicle fusion. Puritide Research supplies SNAP-8 as a high-purity, research-use-only material, synthesized for in vitro work and backed by third-party-verified certificates of analysis so your data rests on consistent, documented quality.

What Is SNAP-8?

SNAP-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3) is a synthetic octapeptide with the sequence Ac-Glu-Glu-Met-Gln-Arg-Arg-Ala-Asp-NH2. It features an N-terminal acetyl group and a C-terminal amide and is designed as a longer analog of the acetyl hexapeptide series, extending the peptide chain that mimics a portion of the SNAP-25 protein.

In experimental settings, SNAP-8 is studied as a research probe for the SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) complex, which mediates synaptic vesicle docking and neurotransmitter release. The peptide's sequence corresponds to a region of SNAP-25 involved in this molecular machinery.

Present understanding derives from in vitro and biochemical studies. Findings should be interpreted within their experimental context and not treated as established clinical outcomes. Puritide Research supplies SNAP-8 strictly for laboratory use; it is not approved here for human, veterinary, or cosmetic application.
