It is more convenient to add a small description of what you are doing and what is the issue here so your post should be improved. Your title is not specific, and it should be enhanced. From what is see, the problem is that you have a variable with spaces non mutant, which is not good practice in bioinformatics. Placing the variable between backticks should solve the issue

You cannot have spaces in the names when using makeContrasts. Even if you do as Basti says, you will get an error because 'non mutant' is not a syntactically valid name. You could do

colnames(design) <- make.names(colnames(design))
contrast.matrix <- makeContrasts(mutant - non.mutant, levels = design)

In addition, please use a reasonable name for your post! It's implied that you would like someone to 'please resolve the issue' when you post. At least make an effort to use a descriptive post name if you want people to help you.
