Predict the most likely effect of a two-nucleotide deletion in the middle of the intron located between exons 4 and 5 on the structure of protein A. Justify your answer.

It is likely that this change has no effects on the protein function.

Explanation:

In eukaryotes, genes are composed of coding (exons) and non-coding (introns) sequences. Since introns are not transcribed into messenger RNA, mutations affecting these sequences generally are neutral; however, it is important to note that introns may regulate gene expression
