KCNK2 binds spadin. 3 / 3
| 3

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."
