Rfal
Unlike other exopolysaccharides, colanic acid does not naturally bind to the cell surface but rather forms a thick mesh between cells. While Waal Ligase usually links the O-antigen to the lipid A core, in K-12 it links colanic acid to the lipid A core. This is because E.coli K-12 does not produce O-antigen due to an insertion mutation.
