My fault, I haven't included Proteins_putative, PDB is just another
table..
But anyway, the problem is with definition of many-to-many relaction()
in Protein_seed.

class Protein_putative(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'Proteins_putative'

    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    name = Column(String, nullable=False, unique=True)
    primary_accession_number = Column(String, nullable=False)
    description = Column(String)
    sequence = Column(String, nullable=False)
    length = Column(Integer, nullable=False)
    alignment = Column(String, nullable=False)

    def __init__(self, name, primary_accession_number, description,
sequence, length, alignment):
        self.name = name
        self.primary_accession_number = primary_accession_number
        self.description = description
        self.sequence = sequence
        self.length = length
        self.alignment = alignment

    def __repr__(self):
        return "<Protein_putative('%s', '%s')>" % (self.name,
self.primary_accession_number)
