DeSALT
Description
deSALT(de Bruijn graph-based Spliced Aligner for Long Transcriptome reads) is a novel alignment approach with faster speed and sensitive exon identification. Taking the advantages of its novel two pass alignment strategy based on de Bruijn graph-based index, efficient alignment skeleton generation, sensitive exon identification and specifically designed local alignment, deSALT is a fast and accurate RNA-seq long read alignment approach. It has ability to produce high quality full-length read alignment, which is effective to recover the exons and splicing junctions along the entire reads.
