again, it looks like this is particular to the US portal. We submit via the European www.pdbe.org and can submit multiple datasets. See 2XGF for an example. Note: I think from www.rcsb.org only one file can be downloaded, but www.pdbe.org clearly shows both. Although you are in the US, you can use the pdbe deposition tool AUTODEP - or the Japanese one, if you like.
