5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium compound studied as an inhibitor of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) in cell-based research.
5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a synthetic small molecule built on a methylated quinolinium ring. Unlike most of our catalogue it is not a peptide, and it is supplied for in-vitro laboratory research.
Research interest centres on its activity as an inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), the enzyme that methylates nicotinamide using S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). Laboratory work examines NNMT activity, NAD+ salvage and SAM-dependent methylation balance in cultured adipocyte and other cell models.
Each vial contains 10 mg of 5-Amino-1MQ as a lyophilized powder. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water (sold separately) before laboratory use. The COA for this exact product has not been published yet; it will appear in the COA & Testing tab and in our COA Library as soon as it is available.
Formula and molecular weight are shown only where printed on our batch COA.
Lyophilized materials are shipped at ambient temperature. On receipt, store sealed vials refrigerated (2–8 °C) or frozen (−20 °C) for long-term storage, protected from light and moisture. Follow your laboratory's own handling and safety procedures.
