Description
Overview: 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor frequently explored in metabolic regulation research. NNMT is linked to NAD+ metabolism, methyl-donor balance, and adipose tissue biology—making 5-Amino-1MQ relevant to studies of energy balance and metabolic signalling pathways.
Storage guidelines: Store dry, tightly sealed, protected from light. For long-term storage, use –20°C in a desiccated environment.
Solubility (general lab guidance): Often handled by dissolving in DMSO first, then diluting into aqueous buffer as needed. Use sterile filtration for cell work.
Key literature: NNMT inhibitors including 5-Amino-1MQ are widely discussed in metabolic regulation studies.
Research areas of interest:
-
