Abstract Parvoviruses extensively utilize alternative splicing to increase the coding capacity from overlapping reading frames in their compact genomes. Recently, a considerable amount of attention has been paid to characterizing the determinants that govern alternative splicing of pre-mRNAs generated by the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM). These studies have revealed that MVM alternative splicing is governed both by factors interacting between introns and by determinants within exons. Comparison with other autonomous parvoviruses with known transcript maps suggest means by which such determinants may function. Parvoviruses have thus become a promising, and in some respects novel, model for understanding the process of alternative splicing and exon definition in mammalian cells.
