Research Grade
5-Amino-1MQ 10mg
NAD+ pathway & metabolic enhancement
5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme that regulates NAD+ metabolism and energy expenditure. By inhibiting NNMT, it raises intracellular NAD+ levels, activates AMPK, and promotes fat cell differentiation reversal — making it a compelling compound in metabolic and longevity research.
- ✓Inhibits NNMT to raise intracellular NAD+
- ✓Activates AMPK for metabolic regulation
- ✓Studied for fat cell differentiation & obesity
- ✓Supports mitochondrial function & energy
- ✓≥99% purity — HPLC verified
Mechanism of Action
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor. NNMT consumes SAM (S-adenosylmethionine) to methylate nicotinamide, diverting it from NAD+ biosynthesis. By inhibiting NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ raises intracellular NAD+ and SAM levels, activating SIRT1 and promoting fat cell shrinkage. Research focuses on its role in obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cellular energy regulation.
