The lysosomal protease cathepsin B recognizes defined, short peptide sequences, providing means for effective, targeted drug release. Here, we show that the introduction of a coordination complex adjacent to the cleavage sequence allows us to tune enzymatic cleavage rate by varying the complexed, trivalent metal ion.
