TRAAK is a membrane tension-activated K+ channel implicated in mechanical nociception. We show in mice that TRAAK is localized exclusively to nodes of Ranvier, the action potential propagating elements of myelinated nerve fibers. Approximately 80 percent of myelinated axons throughout the nervous system contain TRAAK in an all-nodes or no-nodes per...
