Description: Synaptosomal-Associated Protein, 23-KD is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SNAP23 gene. The gene has 8 exons, with the initiation codon located in exon 2 and is mapped on 15q15.1-q15.2. Its amino acid sequence is 59% identical to that of SNAP25. Northern blot analysis revealed that SNAP23 is ubiquitously expressed. The protein is able to bind to multiple syntaxins as well as to multiple vesicle-associated membrane proteins. After relocation, it is required for exocytosis, implying a crucial role in promoting membrane fusion. TIVAMP-containing vesicles were concentrated in the apical domain of epithelial cells. STX3A and SNAP23 were codistributed at the apical plasma membrane, where they formed N-ethyl maleimide-dependent SNARE complexes with TIVAMP and cellubrevin. It is structurally and functionally similar to SNAP25 and binds tightly to multiple syntaxins and synaptobrevins/VAMPs. It is an essential component of the high affinity receptor for the general membrane fusion machinery and is an important regulator of transport vesicle docking and fusion.
Immunogen: An amino acid sequence from the C-terminus of human SNAP23 (DTNRDRIDIANARAKKLIDS) was used as the immunogen for this SNAP23 antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the SNAP23 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
