I would be a bit more concerned with the apparent lack of fit of the model to 
the map.  It looks as if there is unoccupied side chain density, and possibly 
side chains that don't occupy density.  It is hard to tell from a snapshot, but 
if this is the case, make sure everything is in register first, then re-refine, 
having reset the temperature factors to something sensible, and then when you 
converge on something that fits and makes sense, re-assess the map.  Lots of 
green density sitting on your model might indicate problems with scaling the 
data or with the temperature factor refinement.
