What Wikipedia says

In structural biology, a protomer is the structural unit of an oligomeric protein. It is the smallest unit composed of at least one protein chain. The protomers associate to form a larger oligomer of two or more copies of this unit. Protomers usually arrange in cyclic symmetry to form closed point group symmetries.
