5-Amino-1MQ 5mg Product Overview

5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium (5-Amino-1MQ) is a synthetic small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). It is designed for advanced laboratory research into metabolic regulation, NAD⁺ homeostasis, and adipose tissue remodeling. Supplied as a high-purity solid, this compound is intended strictly for laboratory research—not for human or veterinary use.

Key Features

Component: 5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium)
Mechanism of Action: Selective inhibition of NNMT, an enzyme responsible for methylating nicotinamide and related substrates, thereby altering intracellular NAD⁺ precursor utilization.
Biochemical Rationale: By blocking NNMT activity, 5-Amino-1MQ may increase availability of nicotinamide for NAD⁺ salvage pathways, improve mitochondrial function, and enhance metabolic rate.
Form: Solid crystalline or amorphous powder, typically white to off-white

Intended Research Applications

Investigation of NNMT as a metabolic regulator and its role in nicotinamide methylation and NAD⁺ dynamicsSet product image
Studies of energy metabolism, mitochondrial biogenesis, and NAD⁺ pathways in cell and animal models
Research into adipose tissue remodeling, visceral fat reduction, and metabolic syndrome in preclinical settings
Investigation of muscle strength, endurance, and recovery pathways via NAD⁺-boosting interventions
