Selectivity filter instability dominates the low intrinsic activity of the TWIK-1 K2P K+ channel

Two-pore domain (K2P) K+ channels have many important physiological functions. However, the functional properties of the TWIK-1 (K2P1.1/KCNK1) K2P channel remain poorly characterized because heterologous expression of this ion channel yields only very low levels of functional activity. Several under...
