Dear Pavel & Tim,
For a very good visualization & description of “Resolution”,
please see the Proteopedia page created primarily by Eric Martz at:
http://www.proteopedia.org/w/Resolution
it includes a pointer to James Holton’s movie showing an Electron Density Map
vs. Resolution (with m
Dear Pavel,
I believe words have a meaning, but they are not defined. This may make
languages a little more demanding than mathematics, since you have to deal
with a variety of a few hundred thousand to millions, depending how popular
the language in question is, but personally I enjoy the chal

just out of curiosity.. what's your definition of 'poor' and 'good'
resolutions? I suspect ther
Dear John,
In protein crystallography, the ranges customarily applied to
resolution are:
Low resolution --> worse than 2.7 A
Medium resolution --> better than 2.7 A but worse than 1.8 A
High resolution --> better than 1.8 Aand worse than 1.2 A

Dear John,
one expression is mathematically, the other one is technically 'more correct'.
I favour the terms poor and good resolution to avoid confusion, or explicitly
list the values.
Best,
Tim

It is confusing, but "high" is meant to indicate the quality of the
final electron density map based on the data. Your 1.8 A data set will
give the better map, and is the high resolution data set.

Dear All,
For one protein crystal, its resolution was 1.8 A. For another crystal for the
same protein, its resolution was 3.8 A. In literature, do we call the 1.8 A
crystal as the high resolution crystal (because of quality), or do we call the
3.8 A crystal as the high resolution crystal (beca
