Description

NNMT inhibitor studied in metabolic and fat-metabolism research. Supplied strictly for laboratory and in-vitro research use — not for human or veterinary consumption.

5-Amino-1MQ is not a peptide - it is a small quinolinium salt, and it is handled differently as a result. It is supplied as the iodide, so the label mass of 286.11 g/mol includes the iodide counter-ion; the cation itself weighs 159.21 g/mol. Any calculation that ignores the counter-ion will be wrong by almost half.

Compound5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium iodide
Also known as5-Amino-1MQ, 5A1MQ
ClassSmall-molecule quaternary ammonium salt - not a peptide
StructureA 1-methylquinolinium ring system carrying a primary amine at the 5-position, supplied as the iodide salt: a quaternary ammonium cation paired with an iodide counter-ion.
Molecular formulaC10H11IN2
Molecular weight286.11 g/mol as the iodide salt; the free cation alone is 159.21 g/mol
CAS number42464-96-0 (iodide salt)
AppearanceOff-white to yellow or tan crystalline solid.
Purity specification≥98% by HPLC

Every lot ships against its own certificate of analysis. Search by lot number on the certificates of analysis page, or check the paperwork before you order.

ReconstitutionSoluble in water and in DMSO.
Storage, lyophilised2-8 °C or -20 °C, sealed and desiccated, protected from light. More thermally robust than the peptides in this catalogue.
Storage, reconstituted2-8 °C, protected from light, use within a few weeks.
ShippingShipped at ambient temperature. Lyophilised material tolerates transit without a cold chain; move it to the freezer on arrival.

Working notes

  • Let a vial come to room temperature before opening it. Opening a cold vial draws in moist air, and lyophilised powder takes up water quickly.
  • Add the diluent slowly down the inside wall of the vial rather than directly onto the powder cake, and let it dissolve on its own. Shaking a peptide solution is the fastest way to denature it.
  • Wipe the stopper with alcohol before every draw, and keep solutions out of direct light.
  • Repeated freeze-thaw cycles cost you more purity than time in the fridge does. If a vial will be used over weeks, aliquot it once and freeze the aliquots.
