Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The deletion of three consecutive nucleotides would result in a frameshift mutation, where the reading frame of the gene is shifted, and all subsequent codons are read incorrectly. This would lead to the formation of a truncated protein, as well as incorrect mRNA. However, it would not result in incorrect base pairing, as the remaining nucleotides would still correctly pair with their complementary bases.
