5-Amino-1MQ

5-Amino-1MQ belongs to a series of methylquinolinium small-molecule inhibitors of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), reported to be membrane-permeable and selective against related methyltransferases; it is a small molecule, not a peptide.

Summary

5-Amino-1MQ belongs to a series of methylquinolinium small-molecule inhibitors of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), reported to be membrane-permeable and selective against related methyltransferases; it is a small molecule, not a peptide. · pmid:29155147

Mechanism

In cultured adipocytes these inhibitors lowered the NNMT product 1-methylnicotinamide, raised intracellular NAD+ and suppressed lipogenesis; in diet-induced obese mice a potent member of the series reduced body weight and white adipose mass. · pmid:29155147

In 24-month-old mice after an acute muscle injury, an NNMT inhibitor increased muscle stem cell proliferation and fusion. · pmid:30753815

Identity

No public registry record is shown for this page: PubChem gave no record that proves it is this substance.

Structure

No structure representation on record. PepJunkie draws only what an authoritative record supplies; for a peptide that is the residue sequence, and none has been curated for 5-Amino-1MQ yet.


Dose evidence, rung by rung

No established safe human dose. Nothing on file establishes one. That is a statement about the evidence PepJunkie holds, not a promise about the molecule.
