Bacteria use a variety of DNA-binding proteins, generally basic in pH. Since bacterial binding proteins have a diversity of functions, it has been difficult to develop a common function for all of them. Examples include:The HU protein in Escherichia coli, a dimer of closely related alpha and beta chains and in other bacteria can be a dimer of identical chains. HU-type proteins have been found in a variety of bacteria and archaea, and are also encoded in the chloroplast genome of some algae. They are commonly referred to as histone-like and have many similar traits with the eukaryotic histone proteins. Eukaryotic histones package DNA to help it to fit in the nucleus, and they are known to be the most conserved proteins in nature.
The integration host factor (IHF), a dimer of closely related chains which is suggested to function in genetic recombination as well as in translational and transcriptional control is found in Enterobacteria and viral proteins including the African swine fever virus protein A104R.
