Ready-to-use ELISA kits are available for the detection of SNAP-associated protein, an alias of the protein, SNAP associated protein. The official gene symbol is SNAPIN. The protein, with a mass of 14.9 kDa and length of 136 residues, is reported to be cytoplasmic and membrane-associated. It is a member of the SNAPIN family and may be known by other names, including: biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 subunit 7, SNAP-25-binding protein, BLOC-1 subunit 7, BLOC-1 related complex subunit 3, and SNARE-associated protein Snapin, and BLOC1S7.
