Function Catalyzes the release of fatty acids from phospholipids. It has been implicated in normal phospholipid remodeling, nitric oxide-induced or vasopressin-induced arachidonic acid release and in leukotriene and prostaglandin production. May participate in fas mediated apoptosis and in regulating transmembrane ion flux in glucose-stimulated B-cells. Has a role in cardiolipin (CL) deacylation. Required for both speed and directionality of monocyte MCP1/CCL2-induced chemotaxis through regulation of F- actin polymerization at the pseudopods.Isoform ankyrin-iPLA2-1 and isoform ankyrin-iPLA2-2, which lack the catalytic domain, are probably involved in the negative regulation of iPLA2 activity.
Subcellular Localization Isoform LH-iPLA2: Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note=Recruited to the membrane-enriched pseudopod upon MCP1/CCL2 stimulation in monocytes.Isoform SH-iPLA2: Cytoplasm.
Disease Associations Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 2B (NBIA2B) [MIM:610217]: A neurodegenerative disorder associated with iron accumulation in the brain, primarily in the basal ganglia. It is characterized by progressive extrapyramidal dysfunction leading to rigidity, dystonia, dysarthria and sensorimotor impairment. {ECO:0000269PubMed:16783378}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 2A (NBIA2A) [MIM:256600]: A neurodegenerative disease characterized by pathologic axonal swelling and spheroid bodies in the central nervous system. Onset is within the first 2 years of life with death by age 10 years. {ECO:0000269PubMed:16783378, ECO:0000269PubMed:17033970, ECO:0000269PubMed:23749988}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.Parkinson disease 14 (PARK14) [MIM:612953]: An adult- onset progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by parkinsonism, dystonia, severe cognitive decline, cerebral and cerebellar atrophy and absent iron in the basal ganglia on magnetic resonance imaging. {ECO:0000269PubMed:18570303}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
