Research profile & documentation

Why researchers study it
Studied in vitro as a small-molecule tool compound for selectively inhibiting nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) activity in cellular methylation and NAD⁺-salvage pathway research.
Mechanism themes in research
Selective NNMT enzyme inhibition in cell-based assaysCellular methylation-capacity and 1-methylnicotinamide product studiesNAD⁺-salvage pathway crosstalk researchSmall-molecule structure-activity characterization
What the evidence does not establish
Published references are in-vitro or pre-clinical and describe research context only. They do not establish safety, efficacy, or any outcome in humans or animals, and Helix makes no such claims.

    COA with every lot

    Each 5-Amino-1MQ lot is characterized by reversed-phase HPLC for purity and by mass spectrometry for identity, then documented in a per-lot Certificate of Analysis. Unique lot numbers tie the vial back to its synthesis batch and analytical data.

    • RP-HPLC purity result (≥98% (HPLC))
    • Mass-spectrometry identity confirmation
    • Appearance, molecular weight, and storage
    • Lot number and testing status
