Compound Overview
5-AMINO-1MQ is a synthetic small molecule inhibitor targeting the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT plays a pivotal role in cellular metabolism, particularly within adipose tissue, by modulating energy homeostasis and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels. By inhibiting NNMT activity, 5-AMINO-1MQ indirectly elevates NAD+ concentrations and activates metabolic regulators such as sirtuin-1 (SIRT1), a gene associated with metabolic balance and cellular longevity.
The modulation of NNMT by 5-AMINO-1MQ has made it a compound of interest in preclinical studies investigating metabolic rate regulation, fat cell biology, and gene expression linked to metabolic health and energy expenditure.
