Category Description 

    Data items in the MA_EXPERIMENTAL_VALIDATION category describe how the existence 
    of the modeled system was experimentally validated, often through multiple 
    complementary experiments. The aim is to provide experimental evidence supporting 
    the biological plausibility of the input, such as entities forming a complex with 
    a specific stoichiometry or designed proteins being able to fold. It can also include 
    negative evidence (e.g. for models used to distinguish positive and negative results). 
    It is not meant to capture experimental data used in modeling (e.g. via spatial restraints).
