The distinction between theoretical and empirical models is important because when theoretical models are compared with empirical models, the theoretical models often contain significant errors. In contrast, when the structure of a particular macromolecule is determined using [[empirical models|empirical methods]] by different laboratories, or both by crystallography and NMR, the agreement is usually quite good. | The distinction between theoretical and empirical models is important because when theoretical models are compared with empirical models, the theoretical models often contain significant errors.

1,390 theoretical models were historically deposited in the [[Protein Data Bank]] but [http://www.pdb.org/pdb/static.do?p=download/theoretical_models/index.html removed from the main database in 2002]. The structure displayed in the pages automatically generated in Proteopedia for these theoretical models should be interpreted with caution (see [[:Category:Theoretical Model]]). | 1,390 theoretical models were historically deposited in the [[Protein Data Bank]] but [http://www.pdb.org/pdb/static.do?p=download/theoretical_models/index.html removed from the main database in 2002].
