Why more HLA-DR ?

Why is it that in general more HLA-DR molecules are found on the surface 
of APC when according to my reading the mechanism for the expression of 
HLA Class II genes are the same. Does the overrepresentation of HLA-DR 
confer some advantage to the immune system?

Thanks in advance
