The problem is the code expects a single ":" character which can be
used to split the string into the key ("DRE") and the data, here
"100148915 570579(wu:fj78b06)" but the extra ":" is causing the split
to give three parts.  Try editing that line to read:
    key, values = data.split(":",1)

Which file exactly are you using?  The problem data line you gave
doesn't match http://www.expasy.ch/enzyme/1.1.1.49.txt
