A first-in-class small-molecule NNMT inhibitor — structurally distinct from the peptides in this catalog.

5-Amino-1MQ (5-Amino-1-Methylquinolinium) is a small-molecule selective inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). Unlike the receptor-targeting peptides in this category, it acts at the enzymatic level within the NAD+ salvage pathway, making it a structurally and mechanistically distinct research tool. Supplied for laboratory research use.

It is one of the most cited NNMT inhibitors in preclinical research literature and serves as a standard reference compound for studying the NNMT pathway in vitro. Manufactured in the USA and independently tested to ≥99% purity.

Why this one matters: Most NAD+ research compounds work upstream — supplying precursors. 5-Amino-1MQ works downstream by blocking the enzyme that drains them. It’s the only compound in this catalog that targets NAD+ conservation rather than NAD+ supplementation.

You ask, we answer

Everything you'd want to know about Aūra.

Verification, COAs, storage, handling — and what makes Aūra different. For research use only.

How are batches verified?
Independent third-party labs verify identity, purity, sterility, and endotoxins on every batch. Failed lots are rejected and never shipped.
Are COAs available?
Yes. Each shipment includes a batch-matched Certificate of Analysis tied to your specific lot number. Digital copies are also available through our COA library or by request.
What form will my peptides arrive in?
All Aūra peptides ship as lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder in sealed vials. Reconstitution instructions are provided with your shipment.
What purity specs do you follow?
≥99% purity confirmed via HPLC on qualifying batches. Mass verified via MS. All specs available on the batch-specific COA.
How should peptides be stored?
Store lyophilized vials at -20°C, protected from light. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within the stability window noted on the COA.
Shelf life of unopened vials?
Unopened lyophilized vials are stable for up to 24 months when stored at recommended conditions. Exact shelf life is noted per batch on the COA.
What makes Aūra different?
Every batch is independently verified, lot-matched COAs ship with every order, and our verification standard rejects any batch that fails spec — no exceptions. Built for research labs that need reproducibility.
