[Spider-Man] Is Peter special, or would the bite have worked on anyone?

Is there something special about Parker's DNA that let the spider affect him the way it did, or would anyone who got bit develop spider powers?  Did he have a dormant X gene or something?

Peter was chosen. In J. Michael Straczynski’s (and John Romita Jr.’s) Run on the Amazing Spider-Man they delve into the history of it and the Spider-man is a bit like the Vampire Slayer (Buffy) is so much as there have been numerous Spider-men through different times and cultures all the way back to the African spider god Anansi.
