G is the gravitational constant (or indeed the universal gravitational constant), approximately 6.674×10^−11 m³/(kg⋅s²).
g is the gravity of earth, approximately 9.81 m/s².
The equation is F = G⋅m1⋅m2/r². In case of Earth, that's F = G⋅m⋅m_earth/r_earth², with g = G⋅m_earth/r_earth². So in that case we get F = m⋅g.
