Chorismate mutase is a homodimer which has an predominantly α-helical structure <ref name="pizza" />.  There are 10 α-helices spread across the two monomers of chorismate mutase <ref name="pizza" />.  Approximately 86% of the amino acid residues are in the α-helical formations <ref name="pizza" />.  The α-helical structure of ''M. tuberculosis'' chorismate mustase similar to the chorismate mutases of ''S. cerevisae'' and ''E. coli'' <ref name="pizza" />.  It holds its dimeric state in a protein concentration as low as 5 nM <ref name="pizza" />. There are no β-sheets present in chorismate mutase <ref name="CMArt2" />
