An immense range of polysaccharide structures is expressed on the bacterial surface. The length of the polymer can be a crucial attribute for virulence. Members of a family of 'polysaccharide copolymerase' proteins are essential for the regulation of polymer chain length, participating in one widespread biosynthesis scheme.
