5-Amino-1MQ 5mg

5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a small-molecule research compound — note that unlike most items in this catalog, it is not a peptide; it’s a quinoline-based organic compound. It works as a selective, membrane-permeable inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme that consumes NAD+ precursors and SAM (S-adenosylmethionine). It’s grouped with our metabolic research compounds for catalogue convenience given its overlapping research applications with NAD+/adipose metabolism peptides.

Research Applications

• NNMT enzyme inhibition and NAD+/SAM preservation research
• Downstream SIRT1/SIRT3 sirtuin-pathway activation studies
• Adipocyte metabolism and NNMT-pathway research models
• Skeletal-muscle cellular signaling and metabolic-pathway research
