5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule, orally bioavailable inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme highly expressed in adipose tissue that regulates cellular NAD+ and SAM levels. Research programs examine its role in modulating adipocyte metabolism, mitochondrial function, and energy expenditure pathways implicated in metabolic research models. Unlike traditional peptides, 5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic quinolinium compound, offering a distinct mechanism of action for studies into NNMT pathway inhibition and its downstream effects on cellular energy homeostasis. Supplied as research-grade powder with verified purity.
