Spadin binds KCNK2. 4 / 4
| 4

reach
"We demonstrated that TREK‐1 binds to the PDZ domain of NHERF‐1 and that this interaction regulates spadin‐sensitive astrocytic passive conductance (Figure 8)."

reach
"More recent work has shown that spadin, a peptide derived from the maturation of the neurotensin receptor 3, specifically binds to TREK-1, blocking channel activity in vitro and increases the firing rate of 5-HT neurons of the raphe in vivo."

reach
"XREF_FIG shows that spadin bound specifically to TREK-1 with an affinity of about 10 nM."

reach
"Taken together, these results indicate that TREK-1 and NTSR3 and Sortilin are not only associated within the plasma membrane but that spadin interacts directly with TREK-1 to functionally inhibit its activity."
