I had the same problem with a bunch of pdb I downloaded at my very beginning with chime. If I remember correctly, what they had in common was to have been saved as text via the chime plugin from within Netscape 4.7 after opening on a web page. Unfortunately I lost track on how things have been done precisely, but I hope this can help.

Accessing the same files and downloading again as .pdb has solved the problem all the times.

For the attached pdb file of the protein porin,
"select protein"
results in 0 atoms selected.

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'.
