the essential role of Tim12 relies on its unique assembly properties that allow this subunit to bridge the soluble and membrane-embedded translocases in the carrier import pathway.
Title: The essential function of Tim12 in vivo is ensured by the assembly interactions of its C-terminal domain.

Data show that assembly of the three small Tim proteins, Tim9, -10, and -12, precedes docking to the mitochondrial carrier translocase.
Title: Assembly of the three small Tim proteins precedes docking to the mitochondrial carrier translocase.

study found that TIM12 forms dimers that bind to Tim9; in this interaction, Tim12 undergoes structural changes that may be important for transport of its substrates in the mitochondrial carrier import pathway
