5-amino-Ing

5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme involved in cellular energy metabolism and nicotinamide-related metabolic pathways.
In research settings, 5-Amino-1MQ is primarily investigated for its potential influence on cellular metabolism, adipose tissue function, energy expenditure, and NAD⁺-related metabolic processes through modulation of NNMT activity.
Key Research Functions:
Inhibits NNMT enzyme activity
Studied in cellular energy metabolism
Investigated for effects on adipose tissue metabolism
Used in research involving lipid and metabolic regulation
Studied for its relationship with NAD⁺-associated pathways
Investigated in energy expenditure and metabolic signaling
Supports research into nicotinamide metabolism
