Dear student,
Refer below for above asked query:-



Histones are proteins which are  the main component of chromatin which gives DNA a base to wind. Without histone the DNA will remain unwound and will be too long.

The proteins other than histone which remain in the chromatin are known as Non Histone Proteins.
Heterochromatins, DNA polymerase etc. are examples of non histone proteins.
