After clinging to python2 for ages, the RCSB seems to finally released its own python_3_ based BCIF parser....<br>

there would be demand from the Bipython community for a faster cif parser in the current age of huge Cryo-EM structures....</span></div>

<div class="elementToProof"><span style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Is there any initiative to bolt-on the RCSB parser to biopython (bolt on our mmcif dictionary
or so)? <br>
.. or perhaps write our own binary parser in pure python? <br>
... or perhaps ignore "binary format" as fundamentally utterly non-pythonic?</span></div>
