The DEAD-box RNA helicase Prp5 is required for the formation of the prespliceosome through an ATP-dependent function to remodel U2 snRNPs and an ATP-independent function of unknown mechanism. Liang and Cheng show that Prp5 binds to the spliceosome in association with U2 by interacting with the branchpoint-interacting stem–loop and is released upon base-pairing of U2 with the branch site to allow the recruitment of the tri-snRNP.
