5-Amino-1MQ UK — buying guide
What to check before you buy 5-Amino-1MQ in the UK: a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor supplied as a characterised research reference standard.
What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), the enzyme that methylates nicotinamide within the NAD+ salvage pathway. It is not a peptide but a low-molecular-weight compound, with CAS number 42464-96-0 and a molecular weight of 159.21.
In the laboratory 5-Amino-1MQ is used as a defined NNMT-inhibitor reference compound in metabolic and enzyme-pathway research. Sova supplies it as a single 50mg vial for controlled laboratory work — not for human or veterinary use, and with no claim of any effect in people.
Before you buy
How to verify 5-Amino-1MQ before you buy
5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule rather than a peptide, so what matters is a purity figure measured by HPLC on the actual batch, documented on a certificate.
Every Sova 5-Amino-1MQ vial ships with a batch-linked Certificate of Analysis. Before you buy, confirm the CoA references the batch on the vial, that identity is confirmed against the expected 159.21 Da, and that purity is measured by reverse-phase HPLC. Enter the batch at /verify to pull the certificate.
