5-Amino-1MQ 10mg: A Researcher’s Guide to This NNMT-Inhibiting Compound
The field of metabolic research currently experiences rapid growth as scientists search for chemical compounds that can deliver accurate measurements of energy flow within living cells. The research chemical 5-Amino-1MQ 10mg functions as a small molecule that scientists use to study the processes that control cellular energy metabolism.
At PurePeptix, we supply 5-Amino-1MQ 10mg throughout Australia to certified laboratory researchers who conduct controlled non-clinical studies.
What Is 5-Amino-1MQ?
The synthetic small-molecule compound 5-Amino-1MQ exists primarily for research purposes which focus on its ability to inhibit Nicotinamide N-Methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme that plays a significant role in cellular energy balance, lipid metabolism, and the availability of NAD⁺ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide).
Researchers currently study NNMT because it functions as a key factor that determines how cells generate and store energy. The research that scientists use 5-Amino-1MQ as a research tool to study metabolic signals that result from decreased NNMT activity.
Why Is NNMT Inhibition So Significant in Research?
To understand why 5-Amino-1MQ matters in a laboratory context, it helps to appreciate what NNMT does. This enzyme is involved in the methylation of nicotinamide, a process that can reduce the availability of NAD⁺, a coenzyme critical for mitochondrial energy production and a wide range of cellular functions.
The high activity of NNMT leads to decreased NAD⁺ levels which affects how cells produce and use energy.
Key Research Applications
In laboratory settings, 5-Amino-1MQ is commonly incorporated into studies that explore the following:
– NNMT enzyme inhibition and its downstream metabolic effects
– NAD⁺ metabolism and its relationship to cellular energy production
– Adipocyte behavior and lipid regulation at a biochemical level
– Mitochondrial response to changes in NAD⁺ availability
– Cellular energy expenditure modelling in controlled experimental conditions
Its specificity and well-documented mechanism make it a reliable reference compound for researchers who need consistency and reproducibility across experiments.
Product Specifications
PurePeptix supplies 5-Amino-1MQ 10mg as a white lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, which independent testing shows to have more than 99% purity according to HPLC analysis. Research requires this level of purity because it enables scientists to obtain accurate results that they can repeat in all research settings.
The main specifications indicate that the substance has 99% HPLC verified purity and it can dissolve in sterile water and when kept in proper conditions it maintains its stability for two years. The product requires storage in a cold dry environment before reconstitution. The product needs refrigeration after reconstitution to preserve its original substance. The researchers must provide their own diluent for experiments because the package does not include bacteriostatic water or saline.
Sourcing 5-Amino-1MQ in Australia
Research teams need to find trustworthy suppliers who can deliver materials on time because they depend on timely project completion. PurePeptix provides rapid shipping within Australia and enforces strict quality standards for each product batch while offering clear information about their product origins so researchers can trust that the delivered compound meets their research needs.
⚠️ Important Disclaimer: The distribution of 5-Amino-1MQ 10mg is permitted only for laboratory and scientific research use. The product has no authorisation for therapeutic, medical, veterinary or personal applications.
