Answer:

<em>The magnetic field is generated by electric currents due to the motion of convection currents of a mixture of molten iron and nickel in the Earth's outer core: these convection currents are caused by heat escaping from the core, a natural process called a geodynamo.</em>

So when one of the bases is deleted, the whole series of triplets is altered so the whole series of aminoacids in the protein would now be different.
