Transcription in eukaryotic cells is the synthesis of an RNA copy of a segment of DNA. RNA is synthesizedby the enzyme RNA polymerase.
In a eukaryotic cell transcription occurs in the nucleus(transcription occurs in the cytoplasm).
Transcription occurs in the nucleus to produce a pre-mRNA molecule. The pre-mRNA is processed to produce the nature mRNA which exists the nucleus and is translated in the cytoplasm.
