Due to its low immunogenicity and good biodegradability, PSA is considered an ideal material for drug delivery systems. In this study, Escherichia coli K87 was used as the starting strain to construct genetically engineered strains for efficient PSA production by overexpressing the key gene neuD in the Neu5AC synthesis pathway. The effects of different copy numbers of the neuD gene on PSA yield were verified through shake flask and fermenter experiments. The results showed that high-copy-number expression vectors significantly increased PSA yield, with the E. coli K87-6 strain achieving a PSA yield of 8.4 g/L in a 5 L fermenter, which is 27% higher than the starting strain.
