Understanding the Mechanism
What Is
5-Amino-1MQ
5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium (5-Amino-1MQ) is a small-molecule inhibitor that selectively targets Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) — an enzyme involved in regulating cellular metabolism.
By inhibiting NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ supports the elevation of intracellular NAD+ levels, a critical coenzyme involved in hundreds of metabolic reactions, energy production, and cellular repair processes.

01
Targeting the Enzyme
NNMT Inhibition
5-Amino-1MQ selectively binds to Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), a metabolic enzyme that consumes S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) — a key precursor in NAD+ synthesis pathways. By blocking NNMT activity, more substrate is available for NAD+ generation.
02
Boosting Cellular Currency
NAD+ Elevation
With NNMT inhibited, intracellular NAD+ levels increase significantly. NAD+ is the essential cofactor for sirtuins, PARPs, and hundreds of metabolic enzymes. Research suggests intracellular NAD+ can increase by up to 200% through this mechanism.
03
Mitochondrial Energetics
Cellular Activation
Elevated NAD+ activates sirtuin proteins (SIRT1, SIRT3) and supports mitochondrial biogenesis. The result is enhanced cellular energy production, improved metabolic efficiency, and activation of cellular repair pathways — the foundation of metabolic health.
