If DNA and a base were inserted at the beginning of the 5' end of the molecule, how would that affect protein synthesis and the resultant protein?

*5'- ATGCTATCATTGACCTTGAGTTATTAA -3'

1) If DNA and a base were inserted at the beginning of the 5' end of the molecule, how would that affect protein synthesis and the resultant protein? (Hint: think about the code!)

2) If DNA and the G were deleted at the asterisk, how would this affect protein synthesis and the resultant protein? (Hint: think about the code!)

3) What would happen to the reading frame if three bases were inserted/deleted? Why?
