Identifying proteins and peptides, and more specifically large-scale sequencing of single peptides in a mixture of diverse peptides at the single molecule level is an unmet challenge in the field of protein sequencing. Herein are methods for identifying amino acids in peptides, including peptides with one or more unnatural amino acids. In one embodiment, the N-terminal amino acid is labeled with a first label and an internal amino acid is labeled with a second label. In some embodiments, the labels are fluorescent labels. In other embodiments, the internal amino acid is Lysine. In other embodiments, amino acids in peptides are identified based on the fluorescent signature for each peptide at the single molecule level.
