The heterokaryon stage is produced from the fusion of two haploid cells.
2.
A medical example is a heterokaryon composed of nuclei from Hurler syndrome and Hunter syndrome.
3.
They used Sendai virus to force human and mouse cells to fuse and form a heterokaryon.
4.
A heterokaryon is the melding of two or more cells into one and it may reproduce itself for several generations.
5.
They then exchange nuclei and migrate to form a dikaryotic hyphae ( heterokaryon ) containing two separate haploid nuclei, one from each parent.
6.
Cell fusion normally occurs with nuclear fusion, but in the absence of nuclear fusion, the cell would be described as a binucleated heterokaryon.
7.
The result of this fusion is also a synkaryon produced by the merging of the nuclei, and a binucleated heterokaryon in the absence of nuclear fusion.
8.
Using antibody staining, they were able to show that the mouse and human proteins remained segregated to separate halves of the heterokaryon a short time after cell fusion.
9.
This " transient " heterokaryon can produce further haploid buds, or cell nuclei can fuse and produce a diploid cell, which can then undergo mitosis.
10.
Fusion of two cells produces a heterokaryon, i . e ., a single hybrid cell with two nuclei, one from each of the cells entering fusion.
