Order 5-Amino-1MQ Capsules — 50 mg · ×60 capsules
Body-composition research structured for glucose-insulin coupling in rodent models.
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase), an enzyme central to NAD+ salvage and methyl-donor balance. It is actively studied in obesity, metabolic, and sarcopenia research.

Mechanism in the literature
NNMT consumes both nicotinamide (an NAD+ precursor) and SAM (the universal methyl donor). Inhibiting NNMT raises nicotinamide availability for NAD+ synthesis and preserves SAM pools — a mechanism proposed to support both metabolic and muscle-biology endpoints.
Often paired with
Buyers viewing 5-Amino-1MQ Capsules typically also consider 5-Amino-1MQ, Tirzepatide and AICAR. Each is in stock, sealed under nitrogen with a lot-matched CoA.
Research use-cases

- Studied in adipocyte, muscle, and metabolic research
- Available in oral capsule and injectable research formats
Handling in the lab
Both oral and injectable research routes appear in the literature. Oral capsule formats are convenient for multi-week protocols.

Frequently asked
Is 5-Amino-1MQ a peptide?
No — it is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor (a quinoline derivative), not a peptide. It appears in peptide-research catalogs because it targets NAD+-adjacent biology.
What is NNMT?
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase — an enzyme that consumes nicotinamide and SAM to produce N-methylnicotinamide. Elevated NNMT activity is linked to obesity in research models.
Oral or injectable?
Both formats are used. Oral capsules suit longer research windows; injectable is used when fast PK is desired.
How does it interact with NAD+ supplementation?
NNMT blockade increases the nicotinamide pool available for NAD+ synthesis — a complementary mechanism to direct NAD+/NMN supplementation.
