[Chimera-users] Wrong formtting into pdb file after "Chimera"

[Hsih-Te Yang]

Hello:

By using "Chimera" under its environment, I retrieved the 3GBM from
internet of PDB. Then "H" and "L" chains were selected and then
combined into one model.

The formats before and after using Chimera are different:

Before and download from PDB: original 3GBM.pdb:

The "52A" -> "52", there is no discrimination between "ILE" and "PRO"
on the position 52 of H chain.

Please let me know, what wrong with my data processing?
Thank you a lot.
