5-Amino-1MQ

5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a small-molecule research compound — not a peptide — studied as an inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). In preclinical research, inhibiting NNMT is investigated for its effects on cellular NAD+ levels and methylation balance, particularly in adipocytes (fat cells), and the associated influence on energy-metabolism research models. Supplied at ≥98% HPLC purity for in-vitro research use only.

No. Unlike most products in our catalogue, 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium compound rather than a peptide. It is studied for enzyme-inhibition (NNMT) research rather than receptor-agonist activity. Because it is a small molecule, its handling and solubility characteristics differ from lyophilised peptides — researchers should follow their protocol's guidance for preparation. Not for human consumption — for research use only.

5-Amino-1MQ is supplied as a research-grade powder. Preparation depends on the experimental protocol and the chosen solvent system; researchers should consult published literature for appropriate vehicles and working concentrations for in-vitro assays. Storage: store the powder sealed at −20°C, protected from moisture and light, for long-term stability. Prepared solutions should be stored according to protocol and used promptly. Not for human consumption — for research use only.

Legal status: 5-Amino-1MQ is legal to purchase in Australia for legitimate laboratory research purposes. It is not for human consumption, therapeutic, cosmetic, or veterinary use and is not TGA-approved. Purchasers must be 18+ and confirm research-only intent. Quality: each batch is independently verified by third-party HPLC at ≥98% purity with a full COA including HPLC purity %, identity confirmation, and screening. Full COAs are available in our COA Library.

5-Amino-1MQ is studied as a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). By inhibiting NNMT in research models, it is examined for effects on cellular NAD+ availability and methylation balance, particularly in adipocytes. Not for human consumption — for research use only.

NNMT consumes methyl groups and influences the nicotinamide salvage pathway feeding NAD+ synthesis. Inhibiting NNMT with 5-Amino-1MQ is studied for its potential to shift cellular NAD+ and methylation dynamics in metabolic research models. Not for human consumption — for research use only.

5-Amino-1MQ is examined in preclinical adipocyte (fat-cell) and energy-metabolism models, where NNMT activity is associated with cellular energy handling. These are research-model findings used to study metabolism, not evidence of any human effect. Not for human consumption — for research use only.

Unlike the lyophilised peptides in our catalogue, 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium compound. Its solubility and preparation differ from peptides, so researchers should follow their protocol's solvent and concentration guidance for in-vitro work rather than standard peptide reconstitution. Not for human consumption — for research use only.
