Snap-8 (acetyl octapeptide-3) is a synthetic octapeptide modeled on the N-terminal end of SNAP-25, studied for SNARE-complex assembly and neurotransmitter-release signaling.

Snap-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3)

  • Synthetic eight-residue peptide, Ac-Glu-Glu-Met-Gln-Arg-Arg-Ala-Asp-NH2

    An extended analog of acetyl hexapeptide-8

  • Studied as a competitive inhibitor of SNAP-25 within the SNARE complex

    Investigated for its effect on vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release

  • Referenced in expression-line and skin-appearance research models

Research Use Notes

  • Supplied as lyophilized powder

    Requires reconstitution before use

  • Research Water required for mixing (sold separately)

    Swirl gently, never shake

Storage

  • Store lyophilized vial frozen for long-term holding

  • Keep reconstituted solution at 2 to 8°C

    Protect from light and heat

Handling

  • Maintain sterile technique throughout reconstitution

    For laboratory research use only

  • Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve integrity
