Are cleavage sites always polyadenylated?

During mRNA processing, including both coding and non-coding, is the end of 3'UTR always polyadenylated after cleavage?

The wiki for polyadenylation is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyadenylation, but I could find the answer to my question.

If a recent reference could be provided, that will be great. I've done quite a bit search and hasn't found a good source yet. Thank you in advance.

Some background to this question: we are developing bioinformatics tools to predict potential cleavage sites, we need to understand this problem better in order to design a suitable algorithm

It actually is related, as we are developing bioinformatics tools to predict potential cleavage sites, we need to understand this problem better in order to design a suitable algorithm. Please reopen this question if you think it proper. Please let me know! If not, I will ask it elsewhere.

Although you're looking to build a bioinformatics tool down the line, your current question is all biology and no computation. I think you'd have better luck at Biology Stack Exchange or SeqAnswers
