A t-SNARE is a SNARE protein or complementary assembly assigned to the target membrane in a particular membrane-transport event. It pairs with a v-SNARE on the incoming carrier to form a fusion-associated SNARE complex. The prefix describes the experimental transport arrangement; it does not imply that a given membrane is always a target in every trafficking pathway. The neuronal target assembly includes syntaxin and SNAP-25. [ref]
