WellReader is a program for the analysis of gene expression data obtained by means of fluorescent and luminescent reporter genes. WellReader reads data files in an XML format or in a format produced by microplate readers, and allows the user to detect outliers, perform background corrections and spline fits, compute promoter activities and protein concentrations, and compare expression profiles across different conditions. WellReader has been written in MATLAB and is available under an LGPL licence, both as source code (M files) and compiled code (platform-specific binary files).
