Acts as a Wnt7-specific coactivator of canonical Wnt signaling by decoding Wnt ligands: acts by interacting specifically with the disordered linker region of Wnt7, thereby conferring ligand selectivity for Wnt7 (PubMed:30026314). ADGRA2 is then required to deliver RECK-bound Wnt7 into frizzled by building a higher-order RECK-ADGRA2-Fzd-LRP5-LRP6 complex (PubMed:30026314).
