We have isolated a cDNA for a novel human amiloride-sensitive Na+ channel isoform (called delta) which is expressed mainly in brain, pancreas, testis, and ovary. When expressed in Xenopus oocytes, it generates an amiloride-sensitive Na+ channel with biophysical and pharmacological properties distinct from those of the epithelial Na+ channel, a multimeric assembly of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits. The Na+ current produced by the new delta isoform is increased by two orders of magnitude after coexpression of the beta and gamma subunit of the epithelial Na+ channel showing that delta can associate with other subunits and is part of a novel multisubunit ion channel.
