5-Amino-1MQ 10mg

Sign in for priceIn stock

5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). It is studied for effects on adipocyte metabolism and cellular NAD+ availability rather than as a peptide.

About 5-Amino-1MQ 10mg

NNMT consumes both nicotinamide and the methyl donor SAM, so inhibiting it has two consequences that interest metabolic researchers: nicotinamide is spared for NAD+ salvage, and the cellular methylation balance shifts. NNMT is highly expressed in white adipose tissue and its expression correlates with adiposity in the models where it has been measured, which is the basis for studying inhibition in energy expenditure work. 5-Amino-1MQ is a quinolinium small molecule, not a peptide, so it is chemically unrelated to the rest of the catalogue and handles differently in solution.

Storage and reconstitution

Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C in a dry, dark environment. Reconstitute in bacteriostatic water. Once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Lyophilized powder is stable at room temperature for shipping and short-term storage.

Shipping within Canada

Orders placed before 2:00 PM Pacific on a business day are packed and dispatched the same day. Orders placed after that cut-off, or on a weekend or statutory holiday, are dispatched on the next business day. Parcels leave British Columbia, Canada and travel entirely within the country, so nothing on this order crosses a border, clears customs or is held by CBSA. Orders over CA$200 ship free; see the shipping page for transit times by province.
