If you sub-lease a unit, then the tenant that leases to you is considered your Landlord. Their landlord is NOT the sub-lessee's landlord. The master landlord, who usually does not allow subleasing, is not bound by the Landlord/Tenant Act toward the sub-lessee. So if they kick out your sub-landlord, they are kicking out EVERYONE. The master landlord cannot lock out his tenant unless they legally evict that tenant. Since a sub-lessee doesn't have the same rights, then they too are locked out.

Landlords usually don't have any obligations due the sub-lessee, so probably yes, but I would check with your state.

Can my landlord lock me out of my apartment if I don't pay the altered amount of my lease?

If you have a legitimately signed and current lease with the landlord, and you weren't behind in your rent or had some other violation which broke the lease, and, assuming you haven't omitted any critical information (especially from that of the landlord's point-of-view), then, technically speaking, no, the landlord cannot change the locks or prevent you from entering the apartment. However, most landlords would not bother to change the locks or otherwise prevent the tenant from entering without a good reason. You need to discuss it with him/her or contact a lawyer.
