Assuming you mean GCG sequence files (not a GCG sequence database):

EMBOSS can convert many sequence formats, including Genbank and GCG, 
using the program "seqret".

Just one warning ... you need the -ossingle option on the command line 
to write each sequence to a separate file (or process one Genbank 
sequence at a time if they are already in separate files). EMBOSS can 
read GCG files with more than one sequence but other applications may 
assume only one sequence per file.
