PYR-41 is the first cell permeable inhibitor of ubiquitin-activating enzyme E1, irreversibly inhibits ubiquitin-activating enzyme activity.It is a pyrazone compound that showed little or no activity on E2, E3.<ref>

PYR41 also blocks the downstream ubiquitination and ubiquitination-dependent protein degradation or other ubiquitination-mediated cellular activities. Besides, PYR-41 inhibits degradation of p53, a tumour suppressor and also activates the transcription activity of it.<ref>,
