We need a method for representing a hierarchy of structural components, especially in 3D genome structures. The ihm_struct_assembly category provides a way of achieving this. However, the hierarchy is implicit and not explicitly defined. More information regarding the provenance of the hierarchy is required to create a generic data representation. The em_entity_assembly category in the PDBx/mmCIF dictionary is a good example with a self-linking parent.

IHM_STRUCT_ASSEMBLY_CLASS, IHM_STRUCT_ASSEMBLY_CLASS_LIST and _ihm_struct_assembly.parent_assembly_id have been added to the dictionary represent structural hierarchy.
