Compressing String in R

Gundala Viswanath 
Dear all,

What's the R way to compress the string into smaller 2~3 char/digit length.
In particular I want to compress string of length >=30 characters,
e.g. ACGATACGGCGACCACCGAGATCTACACTCTTCC

The reason I want to do that is because, there are billions
of such string I want to print out. And I need to save disk space.
