Yes.

I think there are a number of schools of thought on what the
best approach is. If you have weak density, then contouring maps
at lower levels can help. If you have biochemical/mutation data
which corroborates your model, that would help convince a referee.

Refinement with REFMAC (CCP4) using maximum likelihood
refinement can clarify weak density.
