“…Trichoderma reesei , the work horse for cellulase production in industry, contains 11 genes encoding β-glucosidases which are classified into glycoside hydrolase (GH) families 1 ( cel1a and cel1b ) and 3 ( cel3a , cel3b , cel3c , cel3d , cel3e , cel3f , cel3g , cel3h , and cel3j ) on the basis of their sequence identity and structural similarity [ 19 , 20 ]. They are distributed at different genomic sites with genes cel3e , cel3f and cel3g in chromosome I, cel1b in chromosome II, cel3a , cel1a and cel3d in chromosome III, cel3h , cel3j and cel3c in chromosome IV, and cel3b in chromosome VI [ 21 ]. Their effects on cellulase production, and their cellular distribution and secretion have been comprehensively studied, identifying that β-glucosidases CEL1A, CEL3B, CEL3E, CEL3F, CEL3G, CEL3H, and CEL3J are extracellular, CEL3C and CEL3D intracellular, CEL1B unknown [ 22 ].…”
