5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium iodide, C10H11IN2, 286.11 Da as the salt) is a small synthetic molecule — not a peptide — studied in laboratory models (cell culture and animals) as a selective inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme widely studied in metabolic research. Supplied as a lyophilized powder for laboratory research use only — not for human use.
In laboratory models, 5-Amino-1MQ inhibits NNMT, raising intracellular NAD+ and SAM levels in isolated adipocyte models and altering metabolic gene expression.
