What is a GCC file?

GCC files mostly belong to Gene Construction Kit. GCC files can be one of several specialized data types.
For example, one common use is as a DNA sequence file for genetic cloning tasks. In this case the file holds gene sequence information needed for cloning and design, and it is managed with tools like the Gene Construction Kit or Geneious Prime. More details can be found at SnapGene.
Another use is in remote sensing and mapping. Here, the GCC file can originate from sensors such as the Envisat ASAR and contain radar imaging data that is used with mapping tools. Information on these files is available at NASA Earthdata.
A third role for the extension is as a compressed archive. In these cases the file is actually a ZIP container that holds data such as GenePix output files. Such files are typically opened with compression programs like WinZip. Visit WinZip for more info.
Key points compiled by FilExt.com:

  • Molecular Biology: Stores DNA sequence and cloning information.
  • Remote Sensing: Contains satellite or radar mapping data.
  • Compressed Archive: Is a ZIP file holding GenePix data.

FilExt.com note: Before opening a GCC file, it is best to check its origin so you can use the appropriate tool.

How can I open a GCC file?

You need a suitable software like Gene Construction Kit to open a GCC file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your GCC file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a GCC file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

How to solve problems with GCC files

  • Associate the GCC file extension with the correct application.
  • Update your software that should actually open specialized data files. Because only the current version supports the latest GCC file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available Gene Construction Kit update.
  • To make sure that your GCC file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
