Dear Eleanor,

No its not the B-factors as this was an artificially high set of values but the 
more realistic ones - in the mid 50s - also did not work for the final atom. It 
is something with the final (or only, only defined as its own chain ID) heavy 
atom in the PDB file. If I include the heavy atoms as part of the same chain ID 
as the protein, A, they all refine in real space except for the last one again. 
Something special about the last item. The alt loc doesn't matter either. If I 
pick Measures, Residue Info for the offending heavy atom, in addition to the 
normal line at the bottom of the window,

"B/5 LU/LU ...."

I get the additional line for editing,

"  B/5 LU/..."

with the latter line having the occupancy, b-factor and Alt-conf boxes empty.

Joe
