How about  "A:-1-126", direct from SCOP...
16118	px	a.4.5.8	d1b9ma1	1b9m A:-1-126

I am in the middle of updating the SCOP module, and I have already
refactored that code, and fixed this bug. And I've written a nice shiny
unit test.  But I was concerned that this same bug could crop up elsewhere.
Its the kind of obscure boundary case that could trip up any code working 
with PDB sequence numbers.
