Most probably the PDB file does not respect the PDB format well enough  
to let MMTK identify all the peptide chains. This is unfortunately not  
so rare. Your code is fine.

To check what's going wrong, you could look at the residues in  
universe.protein and figure out which ones are missing. Then look at  
their PDB definition and look for anything unusual.
