Description
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) — not a peptide — supplied here as a 50 mg research tablet, 50 tablets per bottle. For laboratory research use only.
Mechanism studied
NNMT catalyses the methylation of nicotinamide. Inhibiting this enzyme is examined in the literature for its effect on intracellular NAD⁺ availability, which is why 5-Amino-1MQ is frequently used as a research tool in NAD⁺ pathway and cellular energy-metabolism studies rather than as a substitute for NAD⁺ itself.
Studied applications
- NNMT enzyme-inhibition research
- NAD⁺ pathway and cellular energy signalling studies
- Adipocyte metabolism research in cell culture
- Mitochondrial function and enzymatic pathway research

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 5-Amino-1MQ a peptide?
No. 5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule — an inhibitor of the NNMT enzyme — rather than a peptide. It is listed alongside our research peptides for convenience, but it is a distinct compound class.
What is 5-Amino-1MQ studied for in research?
It is studied as a selective NNMT inhibitor, examined in NAD⁺ pathway research, cellular energy-metabolism studies and adipocyte research in cell culture. LiveWell 5-Amino-1MQ is intended strictly for laboratory research use only.
What is the difference between the tablet and the vial format?
The 50 mg vial is supplied as lyophilized powder requiring reconstitution, while this format is supplied as pre-measured 50 mg tablets. Which suits a given study depends on the research design.
Is a Certificate of Analysis included?
Yes. Every batch is HPLC-verified at 99% purity with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis, published on our COA page.
How should the tablets be stored?
Store the sealed bottle at controlled room temperature away from light, heat and moisture, keeping the desiccant in place and resealing after each access.
Is this product for human use?
No. It is sold strictly for laboratory research use. It is not a drug, dietary supplement, food or cosmetic, and it is not intended for human or veterinary consumption.
What is NNMT, and how does inhibiting it relate to NAD⁺?
NNMT is an enzyme that methylates nicotinamide, a precursor in NAD⁺ metabolism. Inhibiting NNMT is studied for its downstream effect on intracellular NAD⁺ availability, which is why 5-Amino-1MQ is used as a research tool for probing this pathway rather than a direct NAD⁺ substitute.
