BrlA, abaA and wetA are pivotal regulators of conidiophore development and conidium maturation (By similarity). They act individually and together to regulate their own expression and that of numerous other sporulation-specific genes (PubMed:25629352). Binds promoters of target genes at brlA response elements (BREs) containing the conserved sequence 5'-(C/A)(A/G)AGGG(G/A)-3' (By similarity). Coordinates also the expression of carbohydrate-active enzymes and of the key effectors of cell wall remodeling during autolysis (PubMed:25629352). Forms aconidial fluffy colonies (PubMed:25629352).
