TNIP1, a previously identified risk factor for autoimmunity, regulates mitochondrial autophagosomal trafficking. Missense mutations in TNIP1 disrupt this regulatory function, yielding a B cell-intrinsic predisposition for TLR7-mediated autoimmunity characterized by IgG4 autoantibodies and the expansion of age-associated B cells.
