Tracking of controlled Escherichia coli replication fork stalling and restart at repressor-bound DNA in vivo.

We report an efficient, controllable, site-specific replication roadblock that blocks cell proliferation, but which can be rapidly and efficiently reversed, leading to recovery of viability. Escherichia coli replication forks of both polarities stalled in vivo within the first 500 bp of a 10 kb repr...
