Technically, DNA cannot form outside the nucleus, as DNA is formed by the replication of existing DNA. It needs an existing strand, which can only be found in the nucleus of a cell. But if it did form outside the nucleus, then the DNA would just be a strand of amino acid, which will quickly be broken down by the lysosomes.
