Ion occupancy of the selectivity filter controls opening of a cytoplasmic gate in the K2P channel TALK-2

Abstract Two-pore domain K+ (K2P) channel activity was previously thought to be controlled primarily via a selectivity filter (SF) gate. However, recent crystal structures of TASK-1 and TASK-2 revealed a lower gate at the cytoplasmic pore entrance. Here, we report functional evidence of such a lower...
