14777	Alphafold prediction: invalid character in the sequence	Tom Goddard	Tom Goddard	"ChimeraX Alphafold prediction stopped working I believe on March 14, 2024 as described in these 3 bug reports #14771, #14775, #14776.

This was caused by a change in the Google Colab web interface which made sending the sequence from ChimeraX to Google Colab fail silently.  Then it tried to run the prediction on the default sequence text which was “Paste a sequence …” containing spaces that led the invalid character error.

Sending the sequence was done in a very hacky way because there are no Colab APIs to do this.  So ChimeraX just set the sequence using Javascript to fill the sequence entry field.  Colab changed that entry field from an html panel-input element so the entry field is no longer found.
