5-Amino-1MQ – 50 mg | 99.85% Purity
Product Overview
5-Amino-1MQ (5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a synthetic small-molecule compound investigated for its ability to inhibit nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT).
NNMT is an enzyme involved in the methylation of nicotinamide and the regulation of cellular metabolic pathways.
5-Amino-1MQ has attracted scientific interest in preclinical studies exploring NNMT activity, adipose tissue metabolism, and metabolic signaling.
Montreal BioPeptides offers 5-Amino-1MQ in a 50 mg format intended exclusively for laboratory and scientific research.
Scientific Research Applications
1. NNMT Inhibition Research
5-Amino-1MQ is studied as an inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme involved in nicotinamide methylation and cellular metabolic regulation.
2. Adipocyte Metabolism
Preclinical research has investigated the relationship between NNMT inhibition, adipocyte function, and metabolic activity in adipose tissue.
3. Cellular Energy Metabolism
NNMT participates in pathways associated with nicotinamide metabolism and methyl-group availability. Researchers investigate how its inhibition affects cellular metabolic processes.
4. Metabolic Regulation Research
Experimental studies have explored NNMT inhibition in relation to energy balance, adipose tissue biology, and metabolic responses in animal models.
5. NAD+ Metabolism Research
Because NNMT uses nicotinamide as a substrate, its inhibition is studied in connection with nicotinamide availability and NAD-related metabolic pathways.
These research findings do not establish that 5-Amino-1MQ is safe or effective for weight loss, metabolic improvement, or any other therapeutic purpose in humans.
