```

Example prompt: Search the Electron Microscopy Data Bank for cryo-EM structures related to SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and show me what entries come back.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to search the Electron Microscopy Data Bank (EMDB) specifically, particularly for cryo-EM or electron tomography structural data. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, machine-readable biological data from EBI's curated EMDB repository. It is ideal for bioinformatics pipelines, structural biology research queries, or any task requiring programmatic access to EMDB records.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string returns no results or an error
- Query returns zero hits if the term doesn't match any EMDB entries
- EBI Search API upstream downtime causes request failure
- Malformed query string may result in unexpected results or API errors
- Rate limiting or payment failure may block the request
