That's not actually a word. That's the amino acid sequence. Each amino acid is represented by three letters, they are usually separated by spaces but it looks like they've been removed from this sequence. Check out the following link if you want to follow the sequence with real words:

It may be in the Guinness Book of World Records, but it doesn't show intelligence, it just shows lack of creativity in naming. What if all of us were named by our genetic sequences? It would be unique to all but identical twins, but I think we'd be out of ink by the time we signed all 50 billion genes (or whatever it is, maybe it's only 5 billion) on a check.
Did you know that if you counted as fast as you could, it would take you 30 years straight of counting, roughly, to reach the number 1,000,000,000?

Chunks of the "words" looked familiar and I never thought out the next step.

Back in high school chemistry class, in our book it mentioned acetylsalicilic acid, which is aspirin. I took it upon myself to memorize that, so when people tell me they have a headache, I ask them if they'd like some acetylsalicilic acid. Gets some funny reactions.
