PDZ domain-containing proteins are known to function as intracellular scaffolds. Here, Egea-Jimenez et al. report the structure of the tandem PDZ domains of syntenin in complex with a Frizzled 7 peptide and PIP2, show that the ligands bind to syntenin cooperatively and illustrate the role of the complex for Frizzled 7 function.
