My guess is that alot depends on the antigen/APC combination moreso than
the MHC allele although my prediction doesn't preclude association with
MHC and, in fact, certain alleles will obviously present the same
peptides with greater or lessor affinities, or will present different
peptides from the same parent molecules.
