domain:The segment S4 is probably the voltage-sensor and is characterized by a series of positively charged amino acids at every third position.,domain:The tail may be important in modulation of channel activity and/or targeting of the channel to specific subcellular compartments.,function:Mediates the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Channels open or close in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, letting potassium ions pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient.,PTM:Phosphorylated .,similarity:Belongs to the potassium channel family. B (Shab) subfamily.,subunit:Heteromultimer with KCNS1, KCNS2 and KCNS3.,
Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Perikaryon . Cell projection, dendrite . Localized uniformly throughout cell bodies and dendrites. Colocalizes with KCNB1 to high-density somatodendritic clusters on cortical pyramidal neurons. .
