Statistical Summary of the Data

About the plotXpress webtool

This webtool is designed to process and visualize data from gene expression assays, especially those that are based on a 'dual luciferase assay'. Currently, two data formats are supported and we welcome ideas for other formats. Users can upload the xlsx sheet generated by a GloMax reader together with a file that lists the experimental conditions per well. Alternatively, the data can be uploaded in a single CSV file in tidy format.
The webtool normalizes the (luminescence) signal based on an internal control. When a reference condition is selected, this condition is used to calculate the fold changes for the other conditions. The webtool can handle complex experimental desgins with multiple conditions and treatments. Please refer to the preprint for more information:

Output

The processed data can be donwloaded as CSV file in tidy format, enabling processing in R or visualization in other webtools (e.g. (Super)PlotsOfData). The plot can be saved as a PNG file or a PDF file, which can be opened and edited with Adobe Illustrator to allow for fine adjustments of the lay-out.
