mmCIF file section/subsection names are case-insensitive.  I recently
had to add this case-insensitive but case-preserving feature to my own
mmCIF parser.

Watch out for the difference between the _atom_site.label_ fields and
the _atom_site.auth_ fields.  You want to present the auth_ fields to
the user; the label_ fields are generated by the PDB, and follow strict
allocation rules.  The auth_ fields are the names given by the author of
the structure, and may use residue numbering schemes which are
well-known by people who study a particular protein or family of
proteins (but don't make sense otherwise).
