A description is provided of the contributions made to our understanding of molybdenum-containing enzymes through the application of electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy and related methods, by way of illustrating how these can be applied to better understand enzyme structure and function. An emphasis is placed on the use of EPR to identify both the coordination environment of the molybdenum coordination sphere as well as the structures of paramagnetic intermediates observed transiently in the course of reaction that have led to the elucidation of reaction mechanism.
