Polyadenylation site The site at the 3´ end of a mRNA at which the mRNA has been cleaved and a tail of 200 - 300 adenosine nucleotides has been added.
poly A site The polyadenylation site defines the place in the gene where addition of a sequence of polyadenylic acid to the 3' end of an RNA after transcription will occur.

Alternative selection of cleavage/polyadenylation sites: this is the only method of splicing which can produce an alternative C-terminus domain in proteins. In this case, different sets of polyadenylation sites can be spliced with the other exons.
