The presence of too many clashes in a model calls into question its reliability. All models submitted to the Protein Data Bank (PDB) are analyzed by [[MolProbity]], which determines a clash score, and ranks it relative to other models of the same resolution. Each PDB entry has an extensive quality report. Here are a couple of examples: | The presence of too many clashes in a model calls into question its reliability.
