If you want to pursue the plausibility of specific outliers you could also download and superimpose PDB entry 1LMB (deposited in 1993, 15 years earlier) and calculate a "Kleywegt plot" comparing the difference in phi/psi between the two structures at each residue they share. This is in the "validation" menu of Coot. Compare the models at their points of difference and decide for yourself. 1LMB has 0% phi/psi outliers, though it contains a smaller piece of the structure. If you care to dig deeper, you could re-refine 3BDN after substituting the 1LMB coordinates for the 3BDN coordinates in the region where the chains superimpose well. I have not looked at any of the other related PDB structures, but you would want investigate those as well.
