Q: Given a passage, construct a question on the basis of the information present in the passage. Construct the question in such a way that (i) it is unambiguous, (ii) it is answerable from the passage, (iii) its answer is unique (iv) it answer uses text phrases from the passage. Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.
To determine whether increased sequence variation occurs in regions of endogenous HIV-1 targeted by HIV-1-specific CD4 T cells. The presence of increased variation would be suggestive of immune evasion by HIV-1.', 'We performed a cross-sectional study of untreated HIV-1-infected subjects measuring HIV-1-specific interferon (IFN)-gamma-secreting CD4 T-cell responses against epitopes in Gag p17 and p24 and concurrent endogenous plasma HIV-1 RNA epitope sequence variation.', 'CD8- depleted IFNgamma enzyme-linked immunospot assays were used to identify regions of HIV-1 Gag recognized by CD4 T cells. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and TA cloning were used to sequence endogenous plasma HIV-1 virus and identify variants.', 'CD4 T-cell epitopes in Gag p17 and p24 were identified in 5 individuals, and concurrent sequence information on endogenous HIV-1 was obtained in 4 of these individuals. Endogenous plasma HIV-1 RNA sequencing revealed no intrapatient amino acid sequence variation through identified epitopes.
A:
Do hIV-1-specific CD4+ T-cell responses are not associated with significant viral epitope variation in persons with persistent plasma viremia?
