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.hen transcription is arrested by the presence of a lesion in the transcribed strand of a gene, DNA repair proteins are recruited to the stalled RNA polymerase to initiate a process called transcription-coupled repair. Central to this process is the general transcription factor TFIIH that has ATPase activity.
