James,
First, there's a bug in the script. It's not dealing with selName
correctly. To get around this just provide something to selName:
findSeq S.G, 1a3h, selName=found_seq
If findSeq finds the sequence, it'll return the selected atoms in found_seq.
Next, SYG is not in that protein. If you search for "S.G" you find
SNG. You can double check this by:
fStr = cmd.get_fastastr("1a3h")
print "SYG" in fStr
which return false.
Cheers,
-- Jason
