Common questions
About this material
Answers describe what the published research examines and where the evidence is limited. They are not claims of any effect; this material is supplied for laboratory research use only.
What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
A small-molecule inhibitor of the enzyme NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase). It is not a peptide. Supplied here as reference material for laboratory research only.
What is NNMT?
An enzyme that methylates nicotinamide, sitting within NAD+ salvage metabolism. It is notably overexpressed in adipose tissue and in several tumour types, which is why it became a research target.
How strong is the evidence?
Weak, and we would rather say so. There are no human trials. Compound-specific studies number only a handful of cell-line and rodent experiments, and much of the wider literature concerns the NNMT target rather than this molecule.
Is it a peptide?
No. It is a small quinolinium compound. It appears alongside peptides in research contexts because of shared interest in metabolic pathways, not because of any chemical similarity.
How is it stored?
Keep the lyophilized powder cold and dark, refrigerated for short-term or frozen for longer storage; refrigerate once in solution and avoid repeated freeze-thaw.
