Description:
5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium (5-Amino-1MQ peptide) is a potent small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme closely associated with metabolic regulation, fat accumulation, and cellular energy balance. Initially explored for obesity and metabolic syndrome research, it has gained attention for its potential to elevate NAD⁺ levels, activate sirtuin pathways, and enhance resting energy expenditure.
