Selection with modified aptamers : A method is described for design of glycocluster ligands by directed evolution. Glycan azides are attached to a library of alkyne‐containing DNA sequences. DNA sequences which cluster the glycans best for multivalent binding to the target are selected and amplified. This method has been applied to the development of high‐mannose clusters which bind HIV‐neutralizing antibody 2G12.
