About 5 AMINO 1MQ 50mg
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), one of the most actively studied targets in metabolic and cellular-longevity research. This listing supplies the 50mg lyophilized vial format for laboratory research use. Every batch is tested to at least 98% purity by HPLC with a certificate of analysis (COA), is USA-made and third-party verified. For research use only; not for human or veterinary use or consumption.
Mechanism of Action
5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a competitive small-molecule inhibitor of NNMT, the enzyme that methylates nicotinamide. By inhibiting NNMT in preclinical systems, researchers study downstream effects on the nicotinamide and NAD+ salvage pathway and on cellular methylation balance. Because NNMT sits at the intersection of NAD+ metabolism and S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) turnover, it is frequently examined alongside NAD+ in metabolic-pathway research. This describes a research mechanism only.
Preclinical Research
NNMT inhibition has been examined in in-vitro and animal-model research on adipocyte energy metabolism, cellular NAD+ pools, and age-associated metabolic change. In this literature 5-Amino-1MQ is used as a tool compound to probe the role of NNMT in these systems. All referenced work is preclinical and mechanistic; no human data or outcomes are implied.
Research Applications
Typical research applications include probing NNMT activity in cultured adipocytes and metabolic-tissue models, studying NAD+ salvage dynamics, and comparative work alongside other metabolic and longevity research compounds such as MOTS-c and Epithalon.

Frequently asked questions
What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a small-molecule inhibitor of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), studied as a research tool compound in metabolic and cellular-longevity research and supplied strictly for laboratory research use.
How does 5-Amino-1MQ work in research models?
In preclinical models it competitively inhibits NNMT, the enzyme that methylates nicotinamide, letting researchers probe the nicotinamide and NAD+ salvage pathway and cellular methylation balance. This describes a research mechanism only, not an effect in humans.
What format is this listing?
This listing is the 50mg lyophilized vial format. 5-Amino-1MQ is also stocked in other strengths and formats, all linked in the specifications above.
Does 5-Amino-1MQ need to be reconstituted?
Yes. This is a lyophilized (freeze-dried) vial and is reconstituted in the laboratory before study using a suitable diluent such as bacteriostatic water.
How should it be stored?
Store the sealed lyophilized vial frozen for long-term stability. Once reconstituted, keep refrigerated and protected from light.
What purity is 5-Amino-1MQ tested to?
Each batch is tested to at least 98% purity by HPLC and ships with a certificate of analysis (COA). It is USA-made and independently third-party verified.
What is 5-Amino-1MQ studied alongside?
Because NNMT sits at the intersection of NAD+ metabolism and methylation, it is frequently studied alongside NAD+ and other metabolic and longevity research compounds such as MOTS-c and Epithalon.
Is 5-Amino-1MQ intended for human use?
No. It is sold strictly for laboratory and research use only, and is not for human or veterinary use, consumption, diagnosis or treatment.
