What Is 5-Amino-1MQ?

5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a synthetic small molecule that functions as a selective, cell-permeable inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). Because it carries a permanent positive charge on the quinolinium nitrogen, it is typically handled and supplied as a salt, most commonly the iodide, with the cation and the salt form carrying distinct molecular weights and CAS identifiers.

In experimental settings, 5-Amino-1MQ is used to interrogate the NNMT pathway, which sits at the intersection of nicotinamide handling, NAD+ availability, and S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-dependent methylation. By reducing NNMT activity in research models, investigators can study how methylation flux and NAD+ pools respond, particularly in adipocyte and metabolic-tissue systems.

Present understanding derives from enzymatic assays, cell-culture studies, and rodent models. Findings should be interpreted within their experimental context and not treated as established clinical outcomes. Puritide Research supplies 5-Amino-1MQ strictly for laboratory use; it is not approved for human or veterinary application.
