Answer:

Yes, the mutation alters protein function.

Explanation:

The question shows an example of an insertion mutation which is the type of mutation where a single nucleotide addition occurs in the nucleotide sequence. This type of mutation usually alters the amino acid reading matrix, leading to a complete change in the protein being produced and consequently a change in its function,
