Trk2 is the primary potassium uptake system in stationary cells, where potassium content is a crucial factor for desiccation survival. PMID: 24267958
Overexpression of TRK2 enhances the ability of trk1 cells to thrive in low potassium environments, resulting in increased potassium accumulation. PMID: 21424545
TRK2 encodes a functional potassium ion transporter that, under specific experimental conditions, exhibits distinctive kinetic characteristics. PMID: 16823886
