During analysis of a mutant bacterial strain, a single-base deletion was found early in a coding region. Ribosome profiling showed normal initiation at the start codon but widespread changes in ribosome density downstream, and the detected protein product was markedly shorter and had an altered C-terminus compared with wild type. The mutation did not create a new promoter or affect mRNA abundance. Which effect is most consistent with the described mutation?
