R08.05.01.02-T01 Refit three side chains that sit out of density in Coot

Original instruction

Open input/model.pdb and input/map.mtz (2.0 Å X-ray, 2mFo-DFc and mFo-DFc) in Coot. Side chains of A:Arg57, A:Glu102 and B:Lys33 lie outside density. Refit each into density (rotamer choice plus real-space refinement) without moving other residues, and save output/fixed.pdb.
