This analysis reveals structural heterogeneity in the lipopolysaccharide lipid A from the cold‐adapted Gram‐negative bacterium Polaribacter sp. SM1127, with variations in fatty acid chain number, length, branching, saturation, and hydroxylation degree, likely aiding bacterial adaptation to cold environmental stressors. Lipopolysaccharide is shown to be
