Deletions and substitutions are two types of point mutations. Which is more likely to cause mistranslations of proteins?
Substitutions are more likely to cause mistranslations of proteins because they shift the reading frame and cause downstream amino acids to be changed. Deletions are more likely to cause mistranslations of proteins because one protein is deleted. Deletions are more likely to cause mistranslations of proteins because they shift the reading frame and cause downstream amino acids to be changed. Substitutions are more likely to cause mistranslations of proteins because one protein is substituted for another protein. None of the above is correct.
