Autoantigen TRIM21 (Ro52) assembles pro-inflammatory immune complexes following lytic cell death
2024-09-10
Abstract excerpt
Sjögren’s disease (SjD) causes localised and systemic inflammation due to autoantibody production against intracellular proteins, such as TRIM21/Ro52. TRIM21 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase which binds antibody Fc domains on opsonised pathogens, which have escaped extracellular immunity and entered cytosols; TRIM21 ubiquitinates these, driving their proteasomal degradation. How and why TRIM21 becomes an autoantigen rema...
