Hi Sumitro,
OK, I have 1akj as model 0 and 2gtz as model 1.  The second command  
you gave will work if you remove the spaces before and after "|":

match #0:1-5.c at ca #1:1-3.c at ca|#1:4-5.c at ca.a

The space is used to separate the two sets of atoms.  The first  
command you gave wouldn't work because only some of the residues in #1  
have alternate locations.

If you want to use all nine residues, here is one possibility:

match #0:1-9.c at ca #1:1-9.c at ca&~@.b

meaning ...and not alternate location B.  If there were more alternate  
locations (C,D,...) you would also need to exclude those.  I hope this  
helps,
Elaine
