Glioblastoma (GBM) is an incurable brain cancer that lacks effective therapies. Here we show that EAG2 and Kvβ2, which are predominantly expressed by GBM cells at the tumor–brain interface, physically interact to form a potassium channel complex due to a GBM-enriched Kvβ2 isoform. In GBM cells, EAG2 localizes at neuron-contacting regions in a Kvβ2-dependent manner.
