The S4 region contributes to the early steps in gating for KAT1 channels, as mutations in this region affect transitions before the open state.

S4 mutations alter KAT1 gating; hypothesis-generating for voltage-sensor mechanisms but leaves open translation to human cardiac channelopathies.
Zei et al. (1998) studied this question.
