5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium compound studied as an inhibitor of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT).
Mechanism of Action:
Binds NNMT and limits the methylation of nicotinamide, which researchers use to study effects on NAD+ salvage flux and cellular methyl-donor balance.
Research Applications:
- NNMT enzyme kinetics
- NAD+ metabolism studies
- Adipocyte and hepatocyte cell models
For laboratory research use only. Not for human or animal consumption.
