5-Amino-1MQ
Selective Small-Molecule NNMT Inhibitor
Product Photo
Research Overview
5-Amino-1MQ is a selective, cell-permeable inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme found at elevated levels in the white adipose tissue and liver of obese, diabetic mice. By blocking NNMT, it raises intracellular SAM and NAD+ levels in adipose tissue, a mechanism studied for its downstream effects on energy expenditure.
Common Research Applications
- Obesity and metabolic syndrome research
- Adipose-tissue NAD+/SAM biology
- Energy expenditure research
- SIRT1 signaling pathway studies

5-Amino-1MQ questions
Is 5-Amino-1MQ a peptide?
No. 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium compound, not a peptide. We carry it alongside our peptide catalogue as a complementary NNMT-inhibitor research tool used in the same metabolic research area as compounds like MOTS-c and Retatrutide.
What purity does KYIN Peptides' 5-Amino-1MQ meet?
KYIN Peptides' 5-Amino-1MQ is independently tested to over 99% purity, with a certificate of analysis available upon request for every batch.
Does a 5-Amino-1MQ order include bacteriostatic (BAC) water?
Yes — every order includes a complimentary 3mL vial of bacteriostatic water at no extra cost. See our reconstitution guide for general handling considerations.
Is 5-Amino-1MQ approved for human or clinical use?
No. 5-Amino-1MQ has not completed human clinical trials and is not FDA-approved for any indication. All available data is preclinical (rodent and in-vitro). It is sold strictly for laboratory research use and is not approved, evaluated, or intended for human or animal consumption, diagnostic, or therapeutic use.
What is 5-Amino-1MQ used for in research?
5-Amino-1MQ is most commonly studied as a selective NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor in obesity and metabolic syndrome research, adipose-tissue NAD+/SAM biology, energy expenditure research, and SIRT1 signaling studies.
How should 5-Amino-1MQ be stored and reconstituted?
General handling follows standard research-compound practices — see our reconstitution guide and storage guide for detailed considerations.
Is 5-Amino-1MQ available in Malaysia and Singapore?
Yes — KYIN Peptides ships 5-Amino-1MQ to both Malaysia and Singapore.
