5-Amino-1MQ is a potent, cell-permeable inhibitor of NNMT (Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase). Research focuses on its ability to influence NAD+ metabolism, adipocyte differentiation pathways, and metabolic regulation in laboratory cell and animal model studies.
NNMT consumes methyl groups from SAM (S-adenosyl methionine) and is a regulator of NAD+ precursor metabolism. By inhibiting NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ is studied for its effects on cellular NAD+ availability, methylation balance, and downstream metabolic signaling pathways.
Yes — every order includes a Certificate of Analysis confirming ≥99% purity, molecular identity, and batch number for complete research traceability.
5-Amino-1MQ is a selective small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) studied as part of the nnmt inhibitor / metabolic research category. It is investigated in pre-clinical and in-vitro research models for its activity on NAD+ salvage, adipocyte differentiation, and SAM/methyl-donor flux. The compound is supplied as a lyophilized powder of ≥99% HPLC-verified purity and is intended exclusively for laboratory research use under qualified scientific supervision.
AscendLabz 5-Amino-1MQ is sourced from cGMP-aligned synthesis facilities and validated for identity, purity, and counter-ion content prior to release. Each lot is independently tested by HPLC, and a Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing peak area, retention time, and batch number is provided with every order. This level of documentation is intended to support reproducible research and clear chain-of-custody record-keeping in academic and independent laboratory environments.
For research workflows, 5-Amino-1MQ is most commonly characterized in cell-culture and isolated-tissue models where investigators examine competitive NNMT enzyme inhibition alongside complementary compounds in the small-molecule metabolic modulators class. Reference standards and dose-response controls should be established by each laboratory prior to experimental use, and all material should be handled by trained personnel using appropriate personal protective equipment.
Storage: Lyophilized 5-Amino-1MQ is stable at -20°C in sealed amber vials. Reconstituted solutions should be refrigerated at 2-8°C and used within 14 days. Lyophilized peptides should be kept in original sealed packaging until use to prevent moisture uptake.
Reconstitution: Bring the lyophilized vial to room temperature before opening. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water or sterile saline by injecting solvent down the inner wall of the vial; do not direct the stream onto the lyophilized cake. Gently swirl — do not vortex or shake — until fully dissolved. Allow 5-10 minutes for complete solvation.
Handling: Use sterile technique throughout. Wipe vial septa with isopropyl alcohol before each draw. Document reconstitution date, solvent volume, and resulting concentration on the vial label for traceability.
Every batch of 5-Amino-1MQ is analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC and confirmed to be ≥99% pure. Mass spectrometry confirms molecular identity, and counter-ion / residual-solvent panels are performed where applicable. The full Certificate of Analysis ships with each order and is also archived by lot number.
No. 5-Amino-1MQ is supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research and is not approved by the FDA, EMA, or any regulatory authority for human or veterinary therapeutic use. It must not be administered to humans or animals. By purchasing, you confirm you are a qualified researcher and the material will be used only in a controlled laboratory setting.
All orders ship from the USA via tracked courier within 24-48 hours of payment confirmation. Domestic delivery typically arrives within 2-5 business days in discreet, temperature-stable packaging. Tracking is provided by email at the time of dispatch.
