Sketch of the mixed ensemble and the native states of the RNA molecules P5ab, P5abcΔA, and P5abc studied in this work. The molecules are attached between the two beads (larger black points) with a RNA:DNA hybrid handle (black dashed curves). The center of the light trap is moved with velocity v. The total distance at time t is z(t) = xtw + xds + xss.
