Research background

5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium compound used as a selective chemical probe for nicotinamide N-methyltransferase. It appears in metabolic literature alongside NAD+ research because the two intersect at nicotinamide handling.

Mechanism of action

Cell-permeable inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). Inhibiting NNMT reduces conversion of nicotinamide to 1-methylnicotinamide, which in adipocyte models is associated with a shifted NAD+ salvage flux and altered methylation-pool dynamics.

Areas of scientific investigation

  • NNMT enzyme inhibition assays
  • NAD+ salvage pathway flux studies
  • Adipocyte metabolic research
  • Methyl-donor pool measurement

Listed fields describe where this sequence appears in published in vitro and preclinical literature. They are not indications, applications, or claims of effect.

Laboratory handling

Reconstitution

A quaternary quinolinium salt with good aqueous solubility; DMSO stocks are also common in cell-culture work.

Stability

As a sealed lyophilized powder the material is stable for extended periods at -20 °C when kept desiccated and protected from light. Once in solution, stability shortens considerably: aqueous stocks are normally held at 2-8 °C for short term work or aliquoted and frozen for longer storage. Repeated freeze-thaw cycling is the most common cause of measurable potency loss.

Packaging

Single sequence per vial, sealed under inert gas in USP Type I borosilicate glass with a butyl rubber stopper and crimped aluminium overseal. Each vial carries a printed PRIMEGEN LABS label with product name, strength, lot number, manufacture and retest dates, storage temperature and a QR code linking to the lot record. Vials ship in a rigid foam insert inside a protective mailer at ambient temperature.
