In the Latin West transubstantiation occurs during the words of institution.

Take this, all of you, and eat it:this is my body which will be given up for you.Take this, all of you, and drink from it:this is the cup of my blood,the blood of the new and everlasting covenant.It will be shed for you and for manyso that sins may be forgiven.Do this in memory of me.

In the East they would not specify a particular time.

Roman Catholic AnswerThe Church has always believed in the complete change of the substance of the bread and wine into the substance of His Body and Blood during the words of consecration since apostolic times. The Eastern Fathers, before the sixth century, favored the expression meta-ousiosis, "change of being". The term transubstantiation was coined, in the Latin tradition, in the creed of the Fourth Lateran Council in 1215 A.D.
