Abstract: Not only is gene regulation in polyoma interesting, but it has also proven to be highly informative and illustrative of a number of novel concepts in gene regulation. Of special interest and importance are the mechanisms by which this virus switches from the expression of early gene products to late gene products after the onset of viral DNA replication. This switch is mediated at least in part by changes in transcription elongation and polyadenylation in the late region, and by the formation and editing of dsRNA in the nucleus. In this review we will summarize the regulation of RNA synthesis and processing during polyoma infection, and will point out in particular those aspects that have been most novel.
