The biophysical and structural mechanisms underlying mechanosensitivity of the TREK-2 potassium channel
<p>The mechanosensitive K<sub>2P</sub> K<sup>+</sup> channels play important roles in a wide range of physiological processes, including touch, balance, pain, and hearing. The ability of these channels to sense changes in pressure within the cell membrane is essential t...
