Ultrafast Photorelaxation of Uracil Embedded in an RNA Strand

Description

Ultrafast photorelaxation of uracil can be hindered by its natural RNA environment. Multiscale quantum dynamical simulations show that the wave packet can be trapped in the photoexcited electronic state, which could potentially lead to photodamage.
