Before revision: Early members of the serine recombinase family were known as resolvase / DNA invertases, while the founding member of the tyrosine recombinases, lambda- integrase , using attP/B recognition sites) differs from the now well known enzymes such as Cre (from the P1 phage) and FLP (from yeast S. cerevisiae) while famous serine recombinases include enzymes such as: gamma-delta resolvase (from the Tn1000 transposon), Tn3 resolvase (from the Tn3 transposon) and φC31 integrase (from the φC31 phage).
