Biopython has limited support for parsing the PDB header information, and
does not (currently) do anything with the SEQRES lines. You can usually
infer the amino acids sequence from the 3D data itself (although this is
complicated if there are gaps, for example residues whose coordinates
were not resolved).

What are you trying to do? It might be simplest to download the sequences
from the PDB as simple FASTA files.
