RSV is a member of the Pneumovirus genus in the Paramyxoviridae family, and contains a nonsegmented negative-stranded RNA genome of about 15 kb [ 5 ] . The minimal viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) consists of two virally encoded proteins, the large protein L and the phosphoprotein P [ 6 7 8 ] , and a third viral protein, M2-1 (22K), contributes RNA antitermination function and optimal processivity [ 9 ] . In addition to these viral proteins, the RdRP also requires cellular actin.

On the basis of sequence homo logy and similarity of three-dimensional structures, phosphoprotein phosphatases (PPases) have been classified into three families designated PPP, PPM, and PTP [reviewed in [ 1 2 3 ] . The PPP and PPM families are comprised of phosphoserine- and phosphothreonine-specific enzymes whereas the PTP family consists of phosphotyrosine-specific and dual-specificity enzymes [ 4 ] . The major members of the PPP family are PP1, PP2A, and PP2B (calcineurin) class of phosphatases.
