Result In Frameshift Mutation. Frameshift mutations are produced by molecules that can insert intercalate between the normal bases to create mistakes during DNA synthesis. A frameshift mutation could result from A a base insertion only B a base.
A frameshift mutation is a particular type of mutation that involves either insertion or deletion of extra bases of DNA. They are extremely likely to lead to large-scale changes to polypeptide length and chemical composition resulting in a non-functional protein that often disrupts the biochemical processes of a cell.

Now whats important here is the number three.
Effects of Frameshift Mutations Frameshift mutations are among the most deleterious changes to the coding sequence of a protein. They are extremely likely to lead to large-scale changes to polypeptide length and chemical composition resulting in a non-functional protein that often disrupts the biochemical processes of a cell. Frameshift mutations have a more dramatic effect on the polypeptide. A long linear polymer of nucleotides found in the nucleus but mainly in the cytoplasm of a cell where it is associated with.
