The groups are not being recognized as amino monomers. This is because the order of the ATOM records in the groups is not what Jmol expects: ATOM 1 C GLU 1 8.619 58.170 21.723 1.00 ATOM 2 CA GLU 1 9.227 58.724 20.432 1.00 ATOM 3 CB GLU 1 9.279 57.641 19.354 1.00 ATOM 4 CD GLU 1 7.964 55.848 18.173 1.00 ATOM 5 CG GLU 1 7.963 57.274 18.736 1.00 ATOM 6 N GLU 1 10.610 59.142 20.749 1.00 ATOM 7 O GLU 1 9.305 57.498 22.488 1.00 Files from the PDB have the first 4 atoms of each group as: N, CA, C, O Jmol expects this ... otherwise they do not get recognized as AminoMonomers ... and they don't get built into AminoPolymers ... so they don't get recognized as 'protein'.
