Description
5-Amino-1MQ 10mg
5-Amino-1MQ (methylquinolinium) is a synthetic small-molecule compound. Researchers commonly study it as an inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT is an enzyme involved in cellular energy regulation and metabolic signaling. NNMT activity has been linked to alterations in nicotinamide metabolism, NAD⁺ homeostasis, and mitochondrial function.
In preclinical research models, researchers have associated the inhibition of NNMT by 5-Aminos-1MQ with changes in energy expenditure, lipid metabolism, and metabolic efficiency. This makes it a compound of interest in studies related to metabolic regulation and obesity-associated pathways. Its mechanism of action is distinct from peptide-based compounds, as it functions as a low-molecular-weight quaternary ammonium molecule rather than a protein or peptide hormone.
