In this review, we briefly summarize the protease assay methods based on resonance energy transfer, and then elaborate the efforts to develop sensitive protease assays through signal amplification by using enzyme cascades. FRET methods have been widely used to assay protease activities because of its advantages, especially coming from the fact the signal is based on fluorescence [17, 18] . For instance, a highthroughput FRET-based method for assaying OmpT endopeptidase activity was used for engineering the substrate specificity of the enzyme [23, 24] .
