One often obtains sequences in other formats and would like to work with them in GCK. This can be done by importing the sequences into GCK. Most other formats are plain text files with the sequence information organized in a specific format. Exporting is disabled in the demo version, but you can import sequences to work with as described in this tutorial.
1. Start GCK and choose File > Import to begin the importing process. You will see Figure 54. Navigate to the DNAs to import folder which was installed when GCK was installed. This folder holds DNAs in a number of different file formats for you to test importing. The radio buttons in this dialog allow you to specify in which file format you believe the file to be. Clicking on the radio button might also change the list of files that are visible.
