I just noticed that the PDB has changed the stated resolution for one of my old structures! It was refined against a very anisotropic data set that extended to 2.2 in the best direction only. When depositing I called the resolution 2.5 as a rough average of resolution in all 3 directions, but now PDB is advertising it as 2.2, which is misleading.
I'm afraid I may not have paid enough attention to the fine print on this issue - is the PDB now automatically advertising the "resolution" of a structure as that of the outermost flyspeck used in refinement, regardless of more cautious assertions by the authors? If so, I object! ===================================== Phoebe A.
