In reply to Genetic test for schizophrenia and depression?, posted by Lamdage22 on July 9, 2014, at 14:42:01
it is possible for genetically identical twins to have one individual who suffers from depression or schizophrenia while the other twin remains unaffected.
in other words: you couldn't predict on the basis of their genes which twin was affected.
(I think. epigenetic stuff might well complicate this... perhaps there is such a thing as an epigenetic profile? i don't know...)
