Description
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) inhibitor. NNMT regulates nicotinamide methylation and influences cellular methylation balance, NAD⁺ metabolism, and energy homeostasis. Research has identified 5-amino-1MQ as a competitive NNMT inhibitor and has investigated its effects on adipocyte metabolism and metabolic signaling. Animal and cell studies have reported changes in NAD⁺ levels, lipogenesis, adipocyte size, and body weight following NNMT inhibition, but these findings do not establish 5-amino-1MQ as a treatment for humans.
Best Use — Research
5-Amino-1MQ is best positioned for laboratory and preclinical research involving:
Purity: ≥99%
