I'm trying to get read counts for things like reference normal forward/reverse count, alternative/reference forward/reverse counts from a bam file. I've honestly read through so many forum posts and BioStar and I can't seem to find the answer. Any help would be appreciated.

This should still work thought I have not used it recently: http://genome.sph.umich.edu/wiki/BamUtil:_validate

Forward and reverse counts should be 50/50. You could get counts for all the flags, and tell from that how many go each way.
That's not a common thing to worry about.
You can't get "alternate" counts from the bam. If you make a vcf, the vcf is likely to have what you want in the DP4 value

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...-

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
