Its substrate site-targeting mechanism inhibiting NNMT at the nicotinamide binding site provides selectivity over related methyltransferases and other enzymes in the NAD salvage pathway, making it a precise tool compound for studying NNMT-specific enzymatic activity in controlled laboratory systems
