Product Description
5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule compound that functions as a highly selective, membrane-permeable inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT is an enzyme that plays a significant role in cellular metabolism by regulating the methylation of nicotinamide, which directly impacts the cellular levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+).
In research environments, 5-Amino-1MQ is utilized to study the biochemical consequences of NNMT inhibition. By blocking this enzyme, researchers can observe changes in intracellular NAD+ concentrations, cellular energy metabolism, and epigenetic modifications, providing critical data on the role of NNMT in metabolic regulation.
Research Applications
- Investigation of NNMT inhibition and its metabolic consequences
- Studies on intracellular NAD+ salvage pathways
- Research on epigenetic regulation through methylation pathways
