Overview
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium compound — not a peptide — studied as a cell-permeable, selective inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) in metabolic research models.
Background
NNMT consumes the methyl donor SAM and produces 1-methylnicotinamide, tying it to both methylation balance and NAD+ salvage. Selective inhibitors such as 5-Amino-1MQ were developed as tools to probe that intersection.
Handling & storage
Reconstitute with our reconstitution solution or the solvent your protocol specifies and swirl until fully dissolved. Refrigerate the resulting solution at 2-8°C and keep the sealed vial at -20°C protected from light.
Documentation
Every strength is filled as its own lot and released only after identity is confirmed by mass spectrometry and purity quantified by reverse-phase HPLC. The certificate of analysis shipped with the vial matches the lot and batch printed on its label, and also reports endotoxin, sterility and heavy metals.
