To check whether CLASP1 association with the schizont is a general phenomenon associated with Theileria infection, we therefore also analyzed the localization of CLASP1 in a clonal line of T. annulata-infected PBM cells (clone TaD7) and in Theileria parva-infected T cells (Tp_951T_F31). Here, CLASP1 is linked to theileriasis.
