The apparent affinity of TASK-2 for membrane PI(4,5)P2 is low and it is conceivable that changing competition by intracellular polycationic compounds might mediate the previously reported sensitivity of TASK-2 to changes in cell volume. A decrease in PI(4,5)P2 by activation of Gq-PCRs is also probably responsible for TASK-2 inhibition.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
