Authors do not always use the full-length sequence numbering when the structure of a fragment is reported. As mentioned above, in [http://firstglance.jmol.org/fgij/fg.htm?1pgb 1pgb] ([[1pgb]]), the crystallized protein is numbered 1-56. This despite it being a fragment of a [http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P06654#sequences 448-residue full length sequence] that begins (after adding an N-terminal Met) at full-length sequence number 228.
