Medical Definition of METALLOTHIONEIN. : any of various metal-binding proteins involved in the metabolism of copper and zinc in body tissue (as of the liver) and in the binding of toxic metals (as cadmium).
Proteins are long molecular chains made from the 20 basic building blocks of life, amino acids. The longest known one, titin, also known as connectin, contains 26,926 amino acids. Titin is found in muscle and contributes to its passive stiffness. Because the 20 amino acids can be connected up in arbitrary sequences, the total space of possible proteins is exponential, with a value of approximately 2050,000 â a tremendous number.
