An infrared free-electron laser was applied to dissociate amyloid fibrils of a peptide as a goal of the development of a novel therapeutic strategy for amyloidosis. Solid evidence for β-sheet to α-helix conversion in the peptide fibril by vibrational excitation of amide bonds was obtained by both experiment and molecular dynamics simulation.
