Description-en: Clean biological sequences from high-throughput sequencing reads
Cutadapt helps with biological sequence clean tasks by finding the adapter
or primer sequences in an error-tolerant way.
It can also modify and filter reads in various ways.
Adapter sequences can contain IUPAC wildcard characters.
Also, paired-end reads and even colorspace data is supported.
If you want, you can also just demultiplex your input data, without removing
adapter sequences at all.
