Diagram of the cellulase induction by CRT2, CRT1 and XYR1 in T. reesei. When cellulose, cellobiose or lactose are used as carbon sources, the expression of crt2 and crt1 is activated. The cellulase induction signal is transduced by CRT1 and CRT2, and activate the expression of major transcription activator XYR1, which finally induce the cellulase production. Whereas the expression of crt2 is also under the tight regulation by XYR1 in the cellulase induction. However, the activated cellulase production by constitutive expression of crt2 cannot antagonize glucose-mediated CCR
