Marvin import the FASTA files if the comment line of it starts with a '>' character. If the sequence type is not specified, Marvin will try to guess it from the comment header and from the sequence.

| Y | C, T or U | pYrimidines |
| K | G, T or U | bases which are Ketones |
| M | A or C | bases with aMino groups |
| S | C or G | Strong interaction |
| W | A, T or U | Weak interaction |
| B | not A (i.e. C, G, T or U) | B comes after A |
| D | not C (i.e. A, G, T or U) | D comes after C |
| H | not G (i.e., A, C, T or U) | H comes after G |
| V | neither T nor U (i.e. A, C or G) | V comes after U |
| N | A C G T U | aNy |
| X | masked | |
| - | gap of indeterminate length |
