Definition of porphyrin in English:

porphyrin

noun ˈpɔːfɪrɪnˈpôrfərin

Biochemistry

Any of a class of pigments (including haem and chlorophyll) whose molecules contain a flat ring of four linked heterocyclic groups, sometimes with a central metal atom.
Example sentencesExamples
- Changes in apoprotein and porphyrin fluorescence suggest two classes of bound porphyrins.
- The researchers used a nanoparticulate semiconductor electrode coated with a light-sensitive porphyrin or chlorophyll dye.
- In this work a systematic study of the photophysical properties of four cationic porphyrins in liposomes is performed and results are compared with those found in homogeneous media.
- These observations suggest that the generation of 102 by lipophilic porphyrins occurs within the bilayer, which is also the site of damage.
- It should also be noted that the doming deformation in the NSD context does not involve the iron, but only the 24 atoms of the porphyrin ring.
- The NSD method has been used extensively to describe and analyze the out-of-plane distortions of porphyrins in heme proteins.

Origin

Early 20th century: from Greek porphura 'purple' + -in¹.
