Glycosylation in live cell and animal modulate a constellation of biological functions. The advent of Chemical Biology has revolutionized the analysis and tailoring of glycans, by introducing myriads of glycan engineering methods. However, the ideal scenario to achieve glycan monitoring and structural manipulation at any hierarchical levels is unmet yet. Herein we review recent advances in the methodological innovation and the versatile applications of the protein‐specific glycan visualization and editing in deciphering the biological functions of glycans. An outlook for future directions toward specific sugar‐chain editing is also included.
