5-Amino-1MQ

5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule (not technically a peptide) that selectively inhibits nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme overexpressed in adipose tissue of obese individuals. NNMT degrades the NAD+ precursor SAM, linking it to metabolic dysfunction. By blocking NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ increases intracellular NAD+ and SAM levels, theoretically boosting fat cell energy expenditure and shrinking adipocytes. All data is preclinical.
