    Titin is often considered the longest word in the English language. As it's the largest known protein, it has the longest chemical name. This is the chemical name.

    Titin is the largest known protein, consisting of 26,926 amino acids. The molecular weight of the mature protein is approximately 2,993,442.763 u[2], and it has a theoretical pI of 6.01[3] The protein's empirical chemical formula is C132983H211861N36149O40883S693. It has a theoretical instability index (II) of 39.69, indicating that it would be stable in a test tube. The protein's in vivo half-life, the time it takes for half of the amount of protein in a cell to disappear after its synthesis in the cell, is predicted to be approximately 30 hours (in mammalian reticulocytes).[4]
