protein

protein
protein 1844, from Fr. protéine, coined 1838 by Dutch chemist Gerhard Johan Mulder (1802-1880), perhaps on suggestion of Berzelius, from Gk. proteios "the first quality," from protos "first" (see PROTO- (Cf. proto-)). Originally a theoretical substance thought to be essential to life; the modern use as a general name for a class of bodies is from German, used thus in English from 1907.
