The present disclosure relates to novel macrocyclic compounds and libraries thereof containing heteroaryl moieties that are useful as research tools for drug discovery efforts. The present disclosure also relates to methods of preparing these compounds and libraries and methods of using these libraries, such as in high throughput screening. In particular, these libraries are useful for evaluation of bioactivity at existing and newly identified pharmacologically relevant targets, including G protein-coupled receptors, nuclear receptors, enzymes, ion channels, transporters, transcription factors, protein-protein interactions and nucleic acid-protein interactions. As such, these libraries can be applied to the search for new pharmaceutical agents for the treatment and prevention of a range of medical conditions.

Mitochondria-targeting potassium sensors and method(s) for making such sensors. The sensor shows a response to potassium and displays a 130-fold dynamic range of fluorescence intensity and high brightness. The sensors response to potassium concentrations was demonstrated to be unaffected by cellular pH value and/or concentrations of other ions. The sensors can be used for monitoring the mitochondrial potassium efflux/influx.

The present invention provides methods of treating or preventing autoimmune diseases with 2,4-pyrimidinediamine compounds, as well as methods of treating, preventing or ameliorating symptoms associated with such diseases. Specific examples of autoimmune diseases that can be treated or prevented with the compounds include rheumatoid arthritis and/or its associated symptoms, systemic lups erythematosis and/or its associated symptoms and multiple sclerosis and/or its associated symptoms.
