TREK-1 (KCNK2) is a K2P channel that is highly expressed in fetal neurons. This K+ channel is opened by a variety of stimuli, including membrane stretch and cellular lipids. Here, we show that the expression of TREK-1 markedly alters the cytoskeletal network and induces the formation of actin- and ezrin-rich membrane protrusions. The genetic inactivation of TREK-1 significantly alters the growth cone morphology of cultured embryonic striatal neurons. Cytoskeleton remodelling is crucially dependent on the protein kinase A phosphorylation site S333 and the interactive proton sensor E306, but is independent of channel permeation. Conversely, the actin cytoskeleton tonically represses TREK-1 mechano-sensitivity. Thus, the dialogue between TREK-1 and the actin cytoskeleton might influence both synaptogenesis and neuronal electrogenesis.
