Research Acknowledgment & Age Verification
Access to our peptide portfolio is reserved for individuals of legal age acquiring products for laboratory research.
5-Amino-1MQ is a cell-permeable selective small-molecule inhibitor of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). In cellular assays, NNMT inhibition prevents the methylation and depletion of nicotinamide, leading to enhanced intracellular NAD+ salvage flux and upregulation of sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) activity. Investigated in metabolic research for its role in cellular energy balance and adipocyte differentiation pathways. Purity ≥99.0% verified by HPLC and NMR. Strictly for laboratory research.
Chemical & Analytical Specifications
Laboratory Handling & Solvent Protocols
To preserve structural integrity and peptide purity, lyophilized materials should be maintained at -20°C in an airtight container protected from ambient moisture and light. Reconstitution should be conducted under sterile conditions using bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) or sterile laboratory saline. Allow the diluent to run gently down the interior vial wall; avoid vigorous shaking or vortexing to prevent shear-induced degradation. Reconstituted aliquots must be stored at 2°C to 8°C and evaluated within 28 to 30 days.
