Overview
5 Amino-1MQ is a potent, cell-permeable small molecule inhibitor of Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), widely investigated for its metabolic research applications.
Product Description
5 Amino-1MQ is a highly selective and cell-permeable small molecule inhibitor of Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT is an enzyme primarily expressed in adipose tissue and liver, playing a crucial role in regulating cellular metabolism by controlling the methylation of nicotinamide, which in turn impacts NAD+ levels and sirtuin activity. Research applications for 5 Amino-1MQ often focus on its potential to modulate metabolic pathways, including studies related to obesity, type 2 diabetes, and other metabolic disorders. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting NNMT, leading to increased levels of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and NAD+, which are critical cofactors in numerous biological processes.
For optimal research integrity, 5 Amino-1MQ should be handled with care in a laboratory setting by trained professionals. Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes, and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, lab coats, and safety glasses. Ensure adequate ventilation during handling. This product is intended strictly for in vitro research and experimental purposes and is not for human consumption or therapeutic use. All research must comply with institutional, local, and national regulations.
To maintain its stability and efficacy, 5 Amino-1MQ should be stored in a cool, dry place, protected from light. Recommended storage conditions are typically at -20°C for long-term preservation. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption. Before use, allow the product to equilibrate to room temperature. Proper storage is critical to preserve the compound's chemical integrity and ensure reliable experimental results.
