The process of assembling a protein from RNA, which involves the conversion of DNA into RNA, is called transcription. This process occurs in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, where the DNA is located. Once the RNA is synthesized, it then moves to the cytoplasm for translation, where proteins are actually assembled. In prokaryotic cells, transcription occurs in the cytoplasm since there is no nucleus.
