I don't think you can give a resolution range - you could argue that it
depends on molecular weight, i.e. high resolution for insulin and high
resolution for the ribosome are going to be very different numbers.
Other than that, my answer would be that you know it when you've got it
:)

Subject: [ccp4bb] poll: cutoff for "high resolution"
At what refinement resolution or resolution ranges would you call a
structure "high resolution" vs.
"low resolution"? I realize that this may boil down to semantics (e.g.
some may classify structures as
"medium resolution"), but I wanted to get an opinion from the pros.
