Pdb File Error

Hi all, I hope some expert is there with pdb format. I have small motif with in pdb format. inside the pdb file i want to change Amino Acid residue into a user define name. I did that using awk and i found that orginal file opens in chimera, jmol etc but the changed file is not opening. If i manually replace AA residue then it can works like orginal motif. Please help me in finding the error in awk edited file comparing to orginal pdb file for example:

If I have got your question right, You want to mutate one AA to another ??? Do you havepymol?? You can mutate the residue in pymol when you are visualizing the protein.
