Demonstrates that only a single gate is necessary to produce inactivation in Shaker potassium channels, with each of the four open gates acting independently.

Clarifies minimal gate requirements for K+ inactivation; extends channel-gating models but leaves open translation to human cardiac electrophysiology.
MacKinnon et al. (1993) studied this question.
