Bioinformatics FAQ

There are a large number of bioinformatics programs available to CBRG account holders via this web site. These examples (Frequently Asked Questions) are used to illustrate the use of these tools in answering typical queries posed by researchers.

The major web-based tools from the CBRG are listed, here.


What is the GC content of my sequence?

Program name: geecee     

(molbiol username / password required)

Notes: Geecee sums the number of 'G' and 'C' bases and writes out the result as the fraction (in the interval 0.0 to 1.0) of the length of the whole sequence.

Example output from geecee using the EMBL database entry, BC055836

		
      #Sequence   GC content
      BC055836      0.53
