If a cell transcribed and translated a gene's intron by mistake, the likely outcome would be that additional amino acids would be inserted into the chain. Introns are non-coding sequences in a gene that are typically removed during RNA splicing. If an intron is erroneously included in the final mRNA and translated, it could lead to a malfunctioning protein with incorrect amino acid sequences, as introns do not correspond to the proper coding sequences of the protein.
