The present disclosure relates to methods of accelerating reactions involving macromolecules, e.g., peptides, polypeptides, and proteins for sequencing and/or analysis. In some embodiments, the methods include the application of radiation, e.g., electromagnetic radiation or microwave energy. In some embodiments, the methods and uses are for modifying a polypeptide or a plurality of polypeptides (e.g., peptides and proteins) for sequencing and/or analysis that employ barcoding and nucleic acid encoding of molecular recognition events, and/or detectable labels.
