Histone-like proteins in bacteria contribute to the control of gene expression, as well as participating in other DNA transactions such as recombination and DNA replication.
Furthermore, some bacteria have linear chromosomes. Borrelia 3 have linear chromosomes and most strains contain both linear and circular plasmids; most of the bacteria in the genus Streptomyces 4 have linear chromosomes and plasmids and some have circular plasmids as well. For example, linear DNA was precipitated in the most commonly used procedures for purifying bacterial plasmids, and the procedures for purifying chromosomal DNA relied upon the differential binding of ethidium bromide to sheared DNA fragments compared to circular DNA.
