5-Amino-1MQ 50mg capsules (60 per bottle) are offered by Peptide Sciences for research into nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) inhibition and cellular energy metabolism.
5-Amino-1MQ and NNMT Research
NNMT is an enzyme highly expressed in adipose tissue that consumes NAD+ precursors and the methyl donor SAM. 5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium is a small, membrane-permeable NNMT inhibitor. In mouse models of diet-induced obesity it reduced fat-cell size and increased intracellular NAD+ levels, making it a useful compound for studying the link between NNMT, NAD+ metabolism and adipocyte biology.
