The Insensitivity of TASK-3 K2P Channels to External Tetraethylammonium (TEA) Partially Depends on the Cap Structure

Two-pore domain K+ channels (K2P) display a characteristic extracellular cap structure formed by two M1-P1 linkers, the functional role of which is poorly understood. It has been proposed that the presence of the cap explains the insensitivity of K2P channels to several K+ channel blockers including...
