Abstract
The review considers the results of genomic research performed over the last decade that shed light on the location in the bacterial chromosomes of genes having different functions. A tendency towards polarity of the chromosome composition is observed: vitally important genes tend to be concentrated in the region of replication origin (oriC), and their concentration decreases toward the region of replication termination (terC). An oppositely directed polarity (an increase near the terC region) is observed for the distribution of certain oligonucleotides involved in the process of chromosome recombination and segregation.
