Abstract excerpt
We have used a targeted gene deletion event to remove the coding region for the bgl1 gene encoding an extracellular beta-glucosidase from the genome of the cellulolytic fungus Trichoderma reesei. The bgl1 null mutants were used to investigate the role of beta-glucosidase in the hydrolysis of cellulose and induction of the other cellulolytic enzyme components. In the absence of extracellular beta-glucosidase,...
