Also known as SNAP-29CEDNIK
Summary
SNAP29 (synaptosome associated protein 29, HGNC:11133) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q11.21, encoding Synaptosomal-associated protein 29 (O95721). SNAREs, soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor-attachment protein receptors, are essential proteins for fusion of cellular membranes. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 16.3% of cell lines).
This gene, a member of the SNAP25 gene family, encodes a protein involved in multiple membrane trafficking steps. Two other members of this gene family, SNAP23 and SNAP25, encode proteins that bind a syntaxin protein and mediate synaptic vesicle membrane docking and fusion to the plasma membrane. The protein encoded by this gene binds tightly to multiple syntaxins and is localized to intracellular membrane structures rather than to the plasma membrane. While the protein is mostly membrane-bound, a significant fraction of it is found free in the cytoplasm. Use of multiple polyadenylation sites has been noted for this gene.

Function. SNAREs, soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor-attachment protein receptors, are essential proteins for fusion of cellular membranes. SNAREs localized on opposing membranes assemble to form a trans-SNARE complex, an extended, parallel four alpha-helical bundle that drives membrane fusion. SNAP29 is a SNARE involved in autophagy through the direct control of autophagosome membrane fusion with the lysososome membrane. Also plays a role in ciliogenesis by regulating membrane fusions.
Subunit / interactions. Forms a SNARE complex, composed of VAMP8, SNAP29 and STX17, involved in fusion of autophagosome with lysosome. Interacts with multiple syntaxins including STX6. Interacts with EIPR1. Interacts with STX17; this interaction is increased in the absence of TMEM39A. (Microbial infection) Interacts with Hantaan hantavirus nucleoprotein; this interaction prevents the breakdown of the viral glycoprotein N by virus-triggered autophagy. (Microbial infection) The interaction with STX17 is decreased in presence of SARS coronavirus-2/SARS-CoV-2 ORF3A protein.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Golgi apparatus membrane. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Autophagosome membrane. Cell projection. Cilium membrane.
Tissue specificity. Found in brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, placenta, skeletal muscle, spleen and pancreas.
Disease relevance. Cerebral dysgenesis, neuropathy, ichthyosis, and palmoplantar keratoderma syndrome (CEDNIK) [MIM:609528] A neurocutaneous syndrome characterized by cerebral dysgenesis, neuropathy, ichthyosis and palmoplantar keratoderma. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity. Belongs to the SNAP-25 family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 144 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
