5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a small-molecule NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor developed for metabolic research. By blocking NNMT, it redirects the NAD+ salvage pathway to elevate intracellular NAD+ and modulate adipocyte metabolism in preclinical models. Supplied as a ≥99% purity lyophilized compound with independent HPLC and mass spectrometry verification.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder and sealed against light and moisture — shelf-stable, no cold chain required. Every lot is assayed by an independent laboratory and the certificate is published before the compound is listed. Strictly for in-vitro laboratory research.
Research applications
- NNMT Inhibition: Selectively inhibits nicotinamide N-methyltransferase to preserve intracellular methyl donors and NAD+ pools.
- Metabolic Research: Studied in preclinical models for adipocyte biology, lipolysis, and energy expenditure modulation.
- NAD+ Pathway Support: Redirects the NAD+ salvage pathway to elevate cellular NAD+ availability in research applications.
- Research Reliability: ≥99% purity with third-party HPLC and mass spectrometry verification for consistent experimental outcomes.
Storage & handling
For laboratory and research use only. Reconstitute using sterile techniques and follow all safety protocols. Store lyophilized peptide in a cool, dry place. Not for human consumption.
Research notes
