For STAR-Fusion, FusionCatcher, and Arriba, the fusion events in the final output either only have gene IDs, or the transcript ID isn't complete. In the parsers, we right now assumes that a fusion event can happen in any transcript of the given gene, but this could be incorrect if the transcript does not contain the breakpoint in cases such as the exon being skipped. So we should do additional checking in the parsers.
