Research context

5-Amino-1MQ has been investigated in the academic literature as a chemical probe for nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme involved in the methylation of nicotinamide to N1-methylnicotinamide. NNMT is expressed in a defined tissue distribution and is of research interest in metabolic, hepatic, and adipose tissue studies, with downstream interest in cellular energy balance and methylation biology. The compound is typically used in vitro at micromolar working concentrations in cell-based assays, and reference-standard quantities are used in analytical method development for LC-MS and HPLC quantification.

The research interest in NNMT as a target has been documented in peer-reviewed publications over the past decade, including studies of small-molecule NNMT inhibitors in cell-based and in-vivo preclinical models. SPK Pharma India does not make therapeutic claims and does not cite any specific study as endorsing any clinical application. The compound is supplied strictly for in-vitro research, analytical method development, and reference-standard work.

For researchers new to the compound, the standard analytical reference points are CAS 42464-96-0, the molecular formula, the lyophilized powder form, and the documented purity threshold (≥99% HPLC). Lot-matched COA includes the actual HPLC chromatogram, the actual mass-spectrum trace, and the analyst signature.

Distributor pricing is available on application. Annual supply contracts with scheduled recurring dispatch are available for repeat buyers. Lead time for in-stock SKUs is typically 5 business days from purchase order confirmation; lead time for scheduled production is typically 4 to 6 weeks.

Quality and documentation

Every lot of 5-Amino-1MQ ships with a lot-matched Certificate of Analysis documenting identity (1H-NMR and mass spectrometry), purity (HPLC at 254 nm), appearance, and lot number. A representative sample of every lot is independently verified by a third-party analytical laboratory before release. MSDS is supplied with every shipment. The COA template, the lot-traceability workflow, and the third-party verification scope are documented on the Quality page.

Storage and handling

  • Store at -20°C in the original sealed container.
  • Protect from light and moisture.
  • Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening, to avoid condensation.
  • Reconstitute in an appropriate research-grade solvent (DMSO, water, or buffer) at the working concentration required by the assay; do not refreeze once reconstituted.
  • Use calibrated pipettes and lab-grade glassware; the compound is hygroscopic.

Shipping

5-Amino-1MQ is shipped lyophilized in sealed containers within temperature-validated packaging. International lanes are routed through dedicated life-science logistics partners with cold-chain handling. Standard dispatch is within 5 business days of purchase order confirmation. SPK Pharma India ships to the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, MENA, APAC, and LATAM. Full export documentation, including commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, COA, and MSDS, is included with every shipment. Destination-specific documentation is supported on request.
