# *FACT*
my girlfriend has a PhD in the study of that (and although miners and asbestos workers get silicosis, pneumonoultramicroscopicosilicoVOLCANOconiosis is silicosis resulting from exposure to volcanic ash).

# I light up the room, me.
that is a stupid word though. If proteins can concatenate like that, there are definitely longer proteins than that, no?

call it english, it's just a loan word from Greek :)

so it could be transcribed into dutch too, which would only make it longer :D

You could apply this to any protein, many of which are much longer.
