Re: [ccp4bb]: "negative" sequence numbers...

[Garib Murshudov]

refmac should be able to handle negative residue numbers. If not then we have introduced a bug and needs to be fixed.

I've tried a negative sequence label.  I've also tried to insert a residue with COOT (figuring it will build and label it correctly) and it "fails to find any acceptable configuration." making me wonder if it won't look residue N-terminal to residue #1.
