Architecture and structural arrangement of PBP2 and the PBP2:MreC complex from H. pylori. a Schematic diagram of PBP2 and the limitations of different domains. b PBP2 folds into anchor, head, linker, and transpeptidase domain. The anchor is “clasped” against the helical head. c The PBP2 anchor region sways away from the head through movement of a hinge region, exposing a previously hidden hydrophobic region that allows binding of MreC1
