5-Amino-1MQ: Analytical Reference
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule methylquinolinium inhibitor studied in NNMT research.
Reference identity
| Class | Small molecule, not a peptide |
| Research target | Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) |
| Documentation | certificate on release |
Research context
NNMT is studied as a regulator of cellular metabolism. NNMT inhibition in research models is associated with changes in cellular NAD+, AMPK activation, and lipogenic gene expression. This is neutral reference information, not a statement of effect in humans.
