Inhibits non-apoptotic cell death pathway by inhibition of the death domain receptor-associated adaptor kinase RIP1. Three distinct mechanisms appear to be involved in necroptosis, the alternative active cell death pathway: T-loop dependent inhibition by necrostatin-1; partially T-loop independent inhibition by necrostatin-3 and indirect inhibition of RIP1 by necrostatin-5.
