Hypothetical scenario : if a given plant cell nucleus was isolated and added to a animal cell with its nucleus present. Can the plant nucleus survive along with the animal cell nucleolus ( i.e.., insect cells lines or transformed mammalian cell lines). What will be the immediate and long term result of this experiment? Will the plant cell nucleus be degraded, will cell death ensue or some how the cell will become a fully functioning bi-nucleate entity with fully functioning transcriptional functionality?

And what are the possible measures to ensure survival of plant cell nucleus in an animal cells in such a way that both plant cell and animal cell co-exist and carry out their transcriptional activity.
