Makes us two once again. Wikipedia addicts were the words.
I also remember when this was done, and what I posted in it. Therefore, I will only contribute with something in this post since I am doing the post anyway. On the topic angel started, the longest word in the world is actually a Swedish one. It is the title of a very, very specific job. However, we can combine an almost infinite number of words into one with our language, so I am disregarding that.
Longest word would thus be: Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu. It's a hill on New Zealand. Like I didn't want to move there enough already.
The one you were looking for, angel, could be this: acetylseryltyrosylserylisoleucylthreonphenylalanylvalylphenylalanylleucylseraspartyl
prolylisoleucylglutamylleucyllthreonylserylserylleucylglycylasparagiglutaminyl
threonylglutaminylglutaminylglutaminylvalylglutaminylglutaminylphetryptophyllysylprolyl
phenylalanylprolyarginylphenylalanylprolylglycylaspartyarginyltyrosylasparaginylalanylvalylle
threonylalanylleucylleucylglycylthreonarginylasparaginylarginylisoleucylisolasparaginylglutaminylglutaminylserylpr
threonylleucylaspartylalanylthreonylaralanylthreonylvalylalanylisoleucylargiasparaginylleucylvalylasparaginylgluta
threonylglycylleucyltyrosylasparaginylphenylalanylglutamylserylmethionylserythreonylserylalanylprolylalanylserine.
It's a Coat Protein, Tobacco Mosaic Virus, Dahlemense Strain.
The Swedish word was "Nordostsjökustartilleriflygsplanigssimulatoranlaggningsmaterielunderhållsuppföljningssystemdiskussionsinläggsförberedelsearbeten"
Which means something along the lines of: preparing documentation for the discussion of the system maintainance on the aerial reconnaissance materials on the location of artillery in the northeastern part of Baltic coast
