During nuclear DNA replication multiprotein replisome machines have to jointly traverse and duplicate the total length of each chromosome during each cell cycle. At certain genomic locations replisomes encounter tight DNA-protein complexes and slow down. This fork pausing is an active process involving recognition of a protein barrier by the approaching replisome via an evolutionarily conserved Fork Pausing/Protection Complex (FPC). Action of the FPC protects forks from collapse at both programmed and accidental protein barri
