The file is missing the coordinates of all the rest of the heavy atom side
chain atoms for Lys 57, beyond the CG atom. For this reason, protanate
is unable to calculate the postions of hydrogens beyond CG either.
Assuming that my analysis is correct, this is a bug in the sense that the
program should recongize such inputs and give a better error message.
The immediate workaround is probably not to use protonate for these
coordinates. Are you sure this step is required? (The plastocyanin tutorial
is probably over-zealous here; it is not always required to run protonate,
since LEaP can add protons as well...)
