Hello,

HADDOCK will ignore the ANISOU records but will not trigger an error for those. My advice (and this can be found in other topics: [How to align pdb? this showed when i processed the pdb](https://ask.bioexcel.eu/t/how-to-align-pdb-this-showed-when-i-processed-the-pdb/559), [Inconsistency in data- DNA-Protein Docking](https://ask.bioexcel.eu/t/inconsistency-in-data-dna-protein-docking/707), [Error: elemental ion CA without specified charge](https://ask.bioexcel.eu/t/error-elemental-ion-ca-without-specified-charge/347)) is to either:  
(1) Open your PDB with a viewer (PyMol for instance) and save it again via the viewer.  
(2) You can also use one of our tool, called `pdb_format.py` from [http://github.com/haddocking/pdb-tools/](http://github.com/haddocking/pdb-tools/) that might give you more details about the faulty line.

Hope this will help,  
Mikael
