Description
5-Amino-1MQ Capsules provide the small-molecule NNMT inhibitor 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium in pre-measured capsules, 60 per bottle.
What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
5-amino-1-methylquinolinium is a quaternary quinolinium compound that inhibits nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme that methylates nicotinamide and so removes it from the NAD+ salvage pathway. It is a small molecule, not a peptide.
The capsule format provides fixed units without weighing powder, which suits oral-format or formulation studies.

Research context
NNMT inhibition is studied in adipocyte cultures and in rodent metabolic models, with outcomes such as NAD+ levels and energy expenditure. Most published work uses the compound in solution, so capsules are mainly relevant to oral-format and stability research.
The same compound is available as powder in 10MG to 50MG sizes.
When comparing capsules with powder, keep in mind that each capsule also contains fill material, so the total capsule weight is higher than 50MG. Weigh and record capsule contents if your protocol depends on the exact amount of compound recovered, and run a powder control from the same supplier to separate formulation effects from compound effects. Store opened bottles with the lid tightly closed between uses.
Preparation, handling and storage
5-Amino-1MQ Capsules is supplied as capsules in a sealed, labelled bottle, so there is no reconstitution step. Keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct light and heat, and leave the capsules in their original container so the product reference stays with the material.
Capsules are sensitive to humidity. Close the lid straight after removing material, avoid storing the bottle near sinks or autoclaves, and record the bottle’s reference and the date it was opened in your lab notes.
