  2. Titin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titin

    Titin is the third most abundant protein in muscle (after myosin and actin), and an adult human contains approximately 0.5 kg of titin. [13] With its length of ~27,000 to ~35,000 amino acids (depending on the splice isoform ), titin is the largest known protein . [ 14 ]

    The IUPAC name for Titin. This is the largest known protein and so has the longest chemical name. Written in full, it contains 189,819 letters. [48] Periplanone B: Periplanone B A pheromone of the female American cockroach. Thebacon: Thebacon Dihydrocodeinone enol acetate, an opioid analgesic or antitussive. [citation needed]

  4. Longest word in English - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_word_in_English

    The IUPAC nomenclature for organic chemical compounds is open-ended, giving rise to the 189,819-letter chemical name Methionyl­threonyl threonyl . . . iso ­leucine for the protein also known as titin, which is involved in striated muscle formation. In nature, DNA molecules can be much bigger than protein molecules and therefore potentially be ...

    The main structure of chemical names according to IUPAC nomenclature. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has published four sets of rules to standardize chemical nomenclature. There are two main areas: IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry (Red Book) IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry (Blue Book)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_proteins

    Schematic representation of structural classes of protein according to the CATH classification scheme. [1] Proteins are a class of macromolecular organic compounds that are essential to life. They consist of a long polypeptide chain that usually adopts a single stable three-dimensional structure.

  8. Nucleic acid notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_notation

    The nucleic acid notation currently in use was first formalized by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) in 1970. [1] This universally accepted notation uses the Roman characters G, C, A, and T, to represent the four nucleotides commonly found in deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA).

  9. MYOT - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MYOT

    The I-type Ig-like domains reside at the C-terminal half, and are most homologous to Ig domains 2-3 of palladin and Ig domains 4-5 of myopalladin and more distantly related to Z-disc Ig domains 7 and 8 of titin. The C-terminal region hosts the binding sites for Z-band proteins, and 2 Ig domains are the site of homodimerization for myotilin. [10]
