## Abstract The Ile‐Lys‐Val‐Ala‐Val (IKVAV) containing peptide, A208 (AASIKVAVSADR, mouse laminin Ξ±1 chain 2097–2108), was recently found to form amyloid‐like fibrils. Fibril formation is critical for its biological activities, including promotion of cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth. In the pres
