About metabolic research compounds
This range covers cofactors and small molecules used in cellular metabolism, redox and bioenergetics research. Not all of them are peptides. NAD+ is a dinucleotide coenzyme, glutathione is the tripeptide γ-Glu-Cys-Gly, 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor, and L-carnitine is a quaternary ammonium compound involved in fatty-acid transport.
They are commonly used together in mitochondrial models because NAD+ and glutathione jointly govern much of the cell’s redox state. For peptide-based mitochondrial research, see MOTS-C and SS-31 in the research peptide range.
Metabolic research compounds: frequently asked questions
Is NAD+ a peptide?
No. NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a dinucleotide coenzyme made of nicotinamide mononucleotide linked to adenosine monophosphate. It is listed here because it is used alongside peptides in mitochondrial and redox research.
What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
5-Amino-1MQ (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme in the NAD+ salvage and methylation pathways. It is studied in cell-culture models of metabolism.
Why does glutathione need careful storage?
Reduced glutathione (GSH) oxidises readily in solution. Store the lyophilised powder sealed at −20 °C, protected from moisture, and prepare solutions fresh or in single-use aliquots.
