Importing and Exporting
You need a FTP program to transfer files between your PC and GCG.
The sequence file must be in “plain text” format.
Chopup: converts a non-GCG format sequence file containing lines longer than 511 characters and as long as 32,000 characterters into a new file containing no longer than 50 characters.
Breakup: reads a non-GCG format sequence file containing more than 350,000 sequence characterters and writes it as a set of separate, shorter, overlapping sequence files than can be analyzed by GCG.
Reformat: rewrites sequence files, scoring matrix files, or enzyme data files so than they can be read by GCG programs.
