We show that TRIM21 is released upon lytic cell death (pyroptosis or necroptosis) but not apoptosis. Although many cytosolic proteins are released by dead cells, liberated TRIM21 is distinct: Its high antibody affinity enables binding to Fc domains of circulating immunoglobulins, forming large immune complexes (ICs). These ICs increase in SjD, where anti-TRIM21 autoantibodies interact with released TRIM21 via Fc and F(ab′)<sub>2</sub>.
