Overview

Description

5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor studied for its effects on cellular metabolism and energy regulation. This compound blocks the enzyme that converts NAD+ precursors into inactive metabolites.

Mechanism of Action

5-Amino-1MQ inhibits NNMT, an enzyme that methylates nicotinamide and depletes the NAD+ precursor pool. By blocking NNMT, the compound preserves cellular NAD+ levels and enhances energy expenditure in adipose tissue (Kraus et al., 2014).
