Methods for searching the [[Protein Data Bank]] for published empirical 3D models are [[Practical_Guide_to_Homology_Modeling#Do_you_need_a_homology_model.3F|explained here]]. ''Empirical models'' are those determined by experimentation, notably [[X-ray diffraction]], [[solution nuclear magnetic resonance]], or cryo-electron microscopy. Empirical models are far more reliable than [[theoretical models]], but one must pay attention to the [[Quality assessment for molecular models|quality of an empirical model]] since some are more reliable than others.
