Data items in these categories are as follows:
![[Scheme scheme203]](/schemes/Gach3o6scheme203.gif)
![[Scheme scheme204]](/schemes/Gach3o6scheme204.gif)
The bullet (![[\bullet]](/teximages/a1ach2o1/a1ach2o1fi16.svg)
) indicates a category key. The arrow (![[\rightarrow]](/teximages/abch3o1/abch3o1fi527.svg)
) is a reference to a parent data item. Items in italics have aliases in the core CIF dictionary formed by changing the full stop (.) to an underscore (_).
In mmCIF, the families of categories used to contain the text of an article for publication and to record information about the handling and processing of the article by a publisher are assigned to the IUCR category group. The name arose from the fact that CIF is sponsored by the International Union of Crystallography and several of the journals of the IUCr can handle articles submitted for publication in CIF format. However, these data items may be freely used by other publishers who wish to handle articles submitted in CIF format. The JOURNAL and JOURNAL_INDEX categories are used in the same way in the core CIF and mmCIF dictionaries, and Section 3.2.5.4![[link]](/graphics/greenarr.gif)
can be consulted for details.
