RESEARCH OVERVIEW
What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium is a small molecule rather than a peptide. It inhibits nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme that methylates nicotinamide and is highly expressed in adipose tissue and liver.
Because NNMT sits where NAD+ salvage and methyl donor metabolism meet, NNMT inhibitors are used to study cellular energy metabolism, adipocyte biology and NAD+ availability.

5-Amino-1MQ vs NAD+
NAD+ is the coenzyme itself. 5-Amino-1MQ is used to study NNMT, one of the enzymes that influences NAD+ availability.

Purity and testing
Certificates of analysis are published on our Lab Reports page as each batch is released.
No certificate is published for this product yet. Certificates appear on our Lab Reports page as each launch batch is released, and this page updates the moment a result is issued. We do not display a purity figure until we hold the certificate behind it.
Laboratory handling
Reconstitution
- Allow the sealed vial to reach room temperature.
- Wipe the stopper with an alcohol swab.
- Add diluent slowly down the inside wall of the vial.
- Swirl gently until dissolved. Do not shake.
- Label with concentration and date, then refrigerate.
Storage
- Lyophilised: -20°C for long-term storage, sealed and dry, away from light.
- Short term: 2 to 8°C for weeks in the sealed vial.
- Reconstituted: 2 to 8°C, protected from light. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
5-Amino-1MQ FAQs
Is 5-Amino-1MQ for human use?+
No. 5-Amino-1MQ is sold strictly for laboratory research use only. It is not a medicine, food supplement or cosmetic and must not be used in humans or animals.
How is 5-Amino-1MQ tested?+
No certificate has been issued yet, so no purity or identity result is claimed for any batch. Certificates are published on our Lab Reports page as each batch is released.
How should 5-Amino-1MQ be stored?+
Lyophilised material should be stored sealed, dry and protected from light, ideally at -20°C for long-term storage. After reconstitution, laboratories typically store solutions at 2 to 8°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
How quickly will my 5-Amino-1MQ order arrive?+
Enquiries are currently closed. No order or delivery is scheduled from this site. See our shipping policy for indicative delivery information.
Which 5-Amino-1MQ strengths are available?+
5-Amino-1MQ is available in 50mg (£39.99), 10mg (£29.99). Larger vials cost less per mg.
Do I need bacteriostatic water for 5-Amino-1MQ?+
Lyophilised peptides are supplied as dry powder. Laboratories reconstitute them with a suitable diluent such as bacteriostatic water, which we stock separately. Our reconstitution calculator works out the resulting concentration.
