SNAP25 (Synaptosomal-associated protein 25) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it.
t-SNARE involved in the molecular regulation of neurotransmitter release. May play an important role in the synaptic function of specific neuronal systems. Associates with proteins involved in vesicle docking and membrane fusion.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.51 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.84, animal model 0.46, genetic association 0.00, clinical 0.78).
In plain words · SNAP25 (Synaptosomal-associated protein 25) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it.

No product in this corpus aims at SNAP25 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Specificity not established: no corpus medicine is aimed at it and the catalogues give it only the role drug-target; HPA finds the RNA tissue enriched, which says where the protein sits but not whether the tumour differs from normal tissue. HPA SNAP25: RNA tissue enriched (brain 2,270 nTPM); high antibody staining in 2 normal tissues. Distribution: no corpus cancer carries a prevalence row, threshold or catalogue link for it; Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (No rule of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts fired.)
