GC Content Calculator for DNA Sequences

Our free GC content calculator provides instant analysis of DNA sequences, calculating GC percentage and AT content with precision. The GC content calculator is an essential tool for molecular biologists, geneticists, and bioinformatics researchers working with DNA sequences. Understanding GC content is crucial for various applications including PCR primer design, genome analysis, and sequence characterization.

The DNA GC calculator automatically computes the percentage of guanine (G) and cytosine (C) nucleotides in your sequence, as well as the complementary AT content (adenine and thymine). These values are fundamental parameters in sequence analysis and genome analysis, helping researchers understand sequence composition, stability, and evolutionary relationships. Use our main sequence analyzer for comprehensive analysis, or explore our reverse complement tool and ORF finder for additional DNA analysis capabilities.

All calculations are performed instantly in your browser - no data is sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy for your sequences. The GC content calculator supports sequences of any length and provides accurate results for research, educational, and professional applications in bioinformatics and molecular biology.
