Description
Product Overview
5-AMINO-1MQ is a synthetic, quinolinium-derived small molecule used in laboratory studies involving nicotinamide N-methyltransferase, commonly abbreviated as NNMT.
NNMT is an enzyme involved in the methylation of nicotinamide and the formation of 1-methylnicotinamide. Researchers use 5-AMINO-1MQ as an experimental tool to investigate the relationship between NNMT activity, nicotinamide metabolism and cellular methyl-donor pathways.
Unlike many other products in the Synapse Peptides Australia range, 5-AMINO-1MQ is not a peptide. It is classified as a small-molecule research compound.
This product is supplied by Synapse Peptides Australia strictly for laboratory research purposes.
Research Context
In laboratory environments, 5-AMINO-1MQ is studied for its ability to inhibit NNMT and alter the production of 1-methylnicotinamide.
Published preclinical research has examined its relationship with intracellular NAD+ levels, S-adenosylmethionine—commonly referred to as SAM—cellular metabolism, adipocyte biology and metabolic signalling pathways.
Research involving 5-AMINO-1MQ has primarily consisted of biochemical testing, cultured-cell studies and animal models. Findings from these experimental models should not be interpreted as evidence of safety, effectiveness or therapeutic benefit in humans.
Areas of Research Interest
Published research involving 5-AMINO-1MQ commonly investigates:
- NNMT inhibition and enzyme activity
- Nicotinamide and 1-methylnicotinamide metabolism
- NAD+ salvage and cellular metabolic pathways
- SAM-dependent methyl-donor balance
- Adipocyte metabolism and lipid-handling models
- Cellular energy regulation in preclinical models
