Where does DNA transcription take place? DNA transcription takes place in the nucleus of a cell, which is where DNA is located. The process begins when the enzyme RNA polymerase hooks itself to a specific sequence found on the DNA at a place called the promoter region.
Gene transcription occurs in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.Unlike prokaryotic RNA polymerase that initiates the transcription of all different types of RNA, RNA polymerase in eukaryotes (including humans) comes in three variations, each encoding a different type of gene.ukaryotic transcription is more complex than prokaryotic transcription. For instance, in eukaryotes the genetic material (DNA), and therefore transcription, is primarily localized to the nucleus, where it is separated from the cytoplasm (in which translation occurs) by the nuclear membrane.
