5-Amino-1MQ
Small-molecule research compound targeting nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT).
Third-Party Tested by Verum Analytics

Albert's Verdict
5-Amino-1MQ selectively inhibits NNMT — an enzyme that's essentially a metabolic brake. Blocking it shifts the methionine cycle toward elevated SAM levels and NAD+ production. The fat cell differentiation data is genuinely interesting.
