Storage & preparation

Before mixing
Keep the sealed, dry vial refrigerated at 2–8°C and protected from light and moisture. For longer storage, use −20°C when supported by the batch documentation. After laboratory preparation, keep refrigerated, minimise repeated warming and freeze–thaw cycles, and follow the batch COA or validated stability protocol.
After mixing
Refrigerate at 2–8°C and protect from light. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Preparing the vial
For analytical laboratory preparation only. Use the solvent and concentration specified by the batch COA or a validated laboratory protocol; do not assume that protocols for peptides apply to this small molecule. Add solvent gently, verify complete dissolution and clarity, and record the prepared concentration. Not for human or veterinary use.

Laboratory preparation: use a batch-validated solvent and protocol.

Research information

What Is 5-Amino-1MQ?

5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a small-molecule research compound rather than a peptide. It is studied as an inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme involved in nicotinamide metabolism.

Why Is It Being Researched?

NNMT links nicotinamide handling with cellular methyl-donor balance and energy metabolism. Researchers use 5-Amino-1MQ to examine those pathways in cell and animal models.

Evidence Note

The evidence is preclinical. A mouse study reported metabolic effects from NNMT inhibition, but this does not establish safety or efficacy in people. See the PubMed-indexed preclinical study.
