I'm thinking professional speaking, it's ok to do if it's work related.

I apologize for missing this deadline.

It's business and they're admitting to a wrongdoing by this error.. but it's not personal in nature.
But if you're saying this to a colleague in a personal conversation or conflict, not related to the job, I'd think saying "sorry" would be more appropriate.
So ya, it does sound more professional. Good point.
