An enzyme inhibitor listing versus a peptide

5-Amino-1MQ 50 mg is studied in NNMT enzyme assays, methyl metabolism, and NAD+-associated pathways. It is not a peptide sequence in the way MOTS-C is. MOTS-C 20 mg is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied in energy, stress-response, and AMPK models.

Both get filed under cellular-energy searches. The method in the paper tells you which listing you are reading about: an enzyme assay, or a peptide model.

One report is older and has no purity line

5-Amino-1MQ task 7542, batch 5-amino-50, analysis November 9, 2025, prints 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium 53.85 mg. It does not print a purity percent. MOTS-C task 193720, analysis June 22, 2026, prints 23.38 mg and purity 99.198%.

Do not copy the MOTS-C purity onto the 5-Amino-1MQ record. The dates are months apart.
