Relative ability of distinct isotypes of human major histocompatibility complex class II molecules to bind staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) was investigated. SEA-binding was observed in L cells transfected with DR2 and DQw1 genes. By contrast, it was not detected in L cells transfected with DPw4 and DP (Cp63) genes. All the transfectants supported SEA-induced IL-2 production by human T cells. Levels of the accessory activity were low in the DPw4 and DP (Cp63) transfectants compared with the DR2 and DQw1 transfectants. In view of the observation that all the transfectants express well the transfected gene products on their surface, the results indicate that DR and DQ molecules bind SEA with high affinity, while DP molecules bind it with fairly low affinity.
