I am new to DNA sequencing and I want to know is there any scripts or tools to count base pairs of a particular sequences. I am working on illumina HiSeq 2000.

For example,The following run have summary information such as # of Spots and runs. I already trimmed the adaptor sequences and merged the short reads. He wants the statistics of each process.
I use FastQC and other tools to evaluate the sequence data. However,it doesn't provide the function to count base pairs.
Any idea?

Fastx-quality-stats from the FASTX-toolkit may give what you need.
$ fastx_quality_stats -h
usage: fastx_quality_stats [-h] [-i INFILE] [-o OUTFILE]
version 0.0.6 (C) 2008 by Assaf Gordon ([email protected])
[-h] = This helpful help screen.
[-i INFILE] = FASTA/Q input file. default is STDIN.
If FASTA file is given, only nucleotides
distribution is calculated (there's no quality info).
[-o OUTFILE] = TEXT output file. default is STDOUT.
The output TEXT file will have the following fields (one row per column):
column = column number (1 to 36 for a 36-cycles read solexa file)
count = number of bases found in this column.
min = Lowest quality score value found in this column.
max = Highest quality score value found in this column.
sum = Sum of quality score values for this column.
mean = Mean quality score value for this column.
Q1 = 1st quartile quality score.
med = Median quality score.
Q3 = 3rd quartile quality score.
IQR = Inter-Quartile range (Q3-Q1).
lW = 'Left-Whisker' value (for boxplotting).
rW = 'Right-Whisker' value (for boxplotting).
A_Count = Count of 'A' nucleotides found in this column.
C_Count = Count of 'C' nucleotides found in this column.
G_Count = Count of 'G' nucleotides found in this column.
T_Count = Count of 'T' nucleotides found in this column.
N_Count = Count of 'N' nucleotides found in this column.
max-count = max. number of bases (in all cycles)

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
