Abstract
The replication-stress response enables the DNA replication machinery to overcome DNA lesions or intrinsic replication-fork obstacles, and it is essential to ensure faithful transmission of genetic information to daughter cells. Multiple replication stress-response pathways have been identified in recent years, thus raising questions about the specific and possibly redundant functions of these pathways. Here, we review the emerging mechanisms of the replication-stress response in mammalian cells and consider how they may influence the dynamics of the core DNA replication complex.
