  Description     : iterative De Bruijn Graph De Novo short read assembler for transcriptome
 IDBA-Tran is an iterative De Bruijn Graph De Novo short read assembler
 for transcriptome. It is purely de novo assembler based on only RNA
 sequencing reads. IDBA-Tran uses local assembly to reconstructing
 missing k-mers in low-expressed transcripts and then employs progressive
 cutoff on contigs to separate the graph into components. Each component
 corresponds to one gene in most cases and contains not many transcripts.
 A heuristic algorithm based on pair-end reads is then used to find the
 isoforms.
