This remarkable selectivity stems from 5-amino-1MQs specific interaction with the nicotinamide-binding pocket of NNMT, rather than the SAM-binding site common to many methyltransferases
For researchers interested in body recomposition rather than just weight loss, these properties are particularly valuable
Preclinical studies in rodents have demonstrated reductions in fat mass, improved insulin sensitivity, and increased metabolic rate without significant changes to food intake (Neelakantan et al., 2019)
By attenuating NNMT activity, 5Amino1MQ has been observed in preclinical settings to elevate NAD+ availability, enhance metabolic flux, and upregulate downstream signaling programs associated with cellular stress responses and energy expenditure (e.g., SIRT1)
