5-Amino-1MQ | Product Description
5-Amino-1MQ | Introduction
5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic, research-use-only compound studied in models of NAD+ biosynthesis, cellular metabolism, and energy regulation. It is known for inhibiting nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme associated with altered energy balance in vitro systems. Investigators have explored its impact on methyl donor availability, adipose tissue metabolism, and redox-sensitive pathways. Preclinical models highlight its role in energy preservation, mitochondrial efficiency, and metabolic flexibility. This compound is intended for controlled laboratory environments and is not approved for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
