Short answer

5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium cation with no amino acids, sold here as a 5mg lyophilised vial from A$68 for laboratory research. Every batch is tested by [lab] before sale, and its certificate is linked below.

What is 5-Amino-1MQ?

5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule, a quinolinium cation, and not a peptide. Research studies it as an inhibitor of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT).

It also appears in the literature as 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium, 5-MQ, 5-Amino-1-methylquinolin-1-ium.

What has research on 5-Amino-1MQ examined?

5-Amino-1MQ has been examined in cell culture (e.g. HeLa cells) and in mouse models, including diet-induced obesity and tumour models. A PubMed search found no human clinical trials.

The table lists primary sources by year and model. Findings describe the study subjects, not this research vial.

What adverse events have studies of 5-Amino-1MQ reported?

No human study of 5-amino-1MQ was found. In diet-induced obese mice, a methylquinolinium NNMT inhibitor (the abstract does not name the specific analogue) did not affect total food intake or produce observable adverse effects (PMID 29155147). No dedicated toxicology study was found.

These findings describe the people or animals in each study. The sources list gives every PubMed record.

How do you reconstitute and store 5-Amino-1MQ?

Store the sealed vial frozen (about -20 degrees Celsius), dry and away from light until it is reconstituted.

After reconstitution with a sterile solvent, keep the solution at 2 to 8 degrees Celsius and avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Record the solvent, volume and date on the vial label.

BAC Water is the usual laboratory solvent. Dilute acetic acid is an alternative for peptides that dissolve poorly in water. The reconstitution guide and storage guide cover laboratory handling.

Is 5-Amino-1MQ a peptide?

5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule, a quinolinium cation, and not a peptide. Research studies it as an inhibitor of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT).

Is 5-Amino-1MQ a prescription medicine in Australia?

5-Amino-1MQ is not named in the Poisons Standard (June 2026 instrument). Peptides Collective sells it for laboratory research use only.

Is 5-Amino-1MQ banned in sport?

5-Amino-1MQ is not named on WADA's 2026 Prohibited List. WADA's S0 class covers any substance without government approval for human use, so Sport Integrity Australia is the body to confirm its status.

What is the CAS number for 5-Amino-1MQ?

The CAS number for 5-Amino-1MQ is 685079-15-6. Its PubChem CID is 950107.

How long does an unopened 5-Amino-1MQ vial keep?

A sealed vial of lyophilised powder keeps to the date on its label when stored frozen, dry and dark. Once reconstituted, keep the solution at 2 to 8 degrees Celsius and record the date on the label.

Does every 5-Amino-1MQ batch have a certificate?

Yes. Every 5-Amino-1MQ batch is tested by [lab] before it goes on sale, and the certificate is published under the batch number printed on the vial. The current batch certificate is [pending].

Where is 5-Amino-1MQ shipped from?

Orders ship tracked from Western Australia. Orders placed before [cut-off] leave the same business day. Delivery estimates by state are on the shipping page.

What purity is the current 5-Amino-1MQ batch?

The current 5-Amino-1MQ batch certificate is [pending]. When it is published, it reports purity by HPLC to three decimal places and confirms identity by mass spectrometry.

Which solvent reconstitutes 5-Amino-1MQ?

BAC Water (sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol) is the usual laboratory solvent. Dilute acetic acid is an alternative for peptides that dissolve poorly in water. Record the solvent, volume and resulting concentration on the vial label.
