5-Amino-1MQ (50mg) is a research-use product for laboratory studies involving metabolic pathways, energy-balance models, and structured workflow design.
Description
5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium (5-Amino-1MQ, 50mg) is a small-molecule nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) inhibitor supplied in bulk quantity for extended research protocols. The 50mg format is intended for multi-arm dose-response curves, longitudinal metabolic studies, or parallel investigation across multiple cell model systems.
Why Researchers Select 5-Amino-1MQ
NNMT is overexpressed in adipose tissue in obesity models and catalyzes the methylation of nicotinamide, depleting the SAM pool available for other methylation reactions. By inhibiting NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ conserves SAM and shifts NAD⁺/NADH ratios. In 3T3-L1 adipocyte studies, NNMT inhibition has been shown to reduce lipid accumulation and influence gene expression patterns associated with adipogenesis. The 50mg quantity supports consistent supply across extended study timelines.

Storage Instructions
All our research peptides are manufactured using a lyophilization (freeze-drying) process. This method is designed to maintain product integrity and allows vials to remain stable during shipping for approximately 3–4 months.
Once a vial is reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, it should be stored in the refrigerator to help maintain stability. Under these conditions, reconstituted material is generally considered stable for up to 30 days.
Lyophilization is a dehydration technique in which compounds are frozen and then exposed to low pressure. This causes the water in the vial to sublimate directly from solid to gas, leaving behind a stable, crystalline white structure. This powder can be kept at room temperature until reconstitution.
Upon receipt, products should be stored away from heat and light. For short-term use, refrigeration at approximately 4°C (39°F) is suitable. For long-term storage (several months to years), vials may be placed in a freezer at approximately -80°C (-112°F). Freezing is the preferred method for preserving product stability over extended periods.
⚠️ Important Notice: These products are intended for research use only. Not for human consumption.
