Background Information
The tandem of pore domains in a weak inward rectifying K+ channel (TWIK1, K2P1.1, or KCNK1) and TWIK-related K+channel 1 (TREK1, K2P 2.1, or KCNK2) are members of the two pore domain potassium (K2P) channel family, consisting of 15 channels that regulate the stabilization of resting membrane potential and cellular excitability by wielding background K+ leakage currents (PMID:12580339). TREK1/KCNK2 is sensitive to a wide range of physical and chemical cues. Its main role is to maintain the resting potential of the cell and whilst highly expressed in the nervous system, TREK1/KCNK2 is also expressed in the kidney, heart, lung and smooth muscle cells (PMID:31031627).
