I have two equations which are essentially the same except for an \overbrace. Separately their code would be like

\begin{equation*}
A = xyzp
\end{equation*}

\begin{equation*}
A = x\overbrace{yz}^{B}p
\end{equation*}

I would like to display the first on overlay 1 and the second on overlay 2. However, I want to adjust the spacing in the first overlay so that when the second overlay appears all that appears is the extra brace and B. In particular we need to leave some vertical space before the equation and horizontal space between x and y and some between z and p. Is it possible to achieve this?

My attempt at something like

\begin{equation*}
A = x\onslide{2-}{\overbrace\bgroup}yz\onslide{2-}{\egroup^{B}}p
\end{equation*}

did not work.
