The elucidation of both inverting and retaining enzymes by Gloster et al. [(2008) Chem. Biol.] [1] probably deserves special mention in the GH section. As far as I know, this is the only exception to the one family-one mechanism postulate.

Divergence of catalytic mechanism within a glycosidase family provides insight into evolution of carbohydrate metabolism by human gut flora. Chem Biol. 2008;15(10):1058-67.
