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 (By similarity). 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). Required for conidiophores formation (PubMed:17213655). Controls expression of abaA (PubMed:19850144). Expression is controlled by flbA, flbS and fluG (PubMed:19850144). Leads to delayed conidia development (PubMed:17213655, PubMed:19850144).
