| Function |
Hydrolyzes the ester bond at the sn-1 position of glycerophospholipids and produces 2-acyl lysophospholipids. Hydrolyzes phosphatidylserine (PS) in the form of liposomes and 1- acyl-2 lysophosphatidylserine (lyso-PS), but not triolein, phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidic acid (PA) or phosphatidylinositol (PI). Isoform 2 hydrolyzes lyso-PS but not PS. Hydrolysis of lyso-PS in peritoneal mast cells activated by receptors for IgE leads to stimulate histamine production. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10196188}.

| Tissue Specificity |
Widely expressed. Expressed in placenta, prostate and liver. Weakly or not expressed in skin, leukocytes, platelets, colon, spleen, lung, muscle and kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9074642}.
