By introducing a photolabile group in the Watson–Crick base‐pairing site of a guanosine residue, a bistable 20‐base RNA sequence was forced into a less stable conformation. A single laser pulse released the native sequence, and the subsequent refolding equilibration was monitored with time‐resolved NMR spectroscopy (see spectra). This permitted a quantitative description of the refolding process.
