{c}
<Guen Tae Park> is a plant researcher credited as first author of a 2014 study of <MOS7>, a <nuclear pore complex> component, in <Arabidopsis thaliana>. The paper lists a Department of Biological Sciences affiliation at Seoul National University; its contribution statement credits Park with research design, experiments, data analysis and writing.
The team connected loss of <MOS7> to defective <microtubule> organization during <mitosis>, impaired <pollen> and <ovule> development, and arrest of <embryos>. Introducing a functional tagged <MOS7> copy rescued the reproductive defects, linking the phenotype to the disrupted <gene>. This established a role for nuclear-pore machinery in reproductive <cell division>, beyond its familiar transport setting.<Nucleoporin MOS7 Nup88 is required for mitosis in gametogenesis and seed development in Arabidopsis by Guen Tae Park and others>[2014, affiliations, author contributions and Results: mos7-5 phenotypes and complementation]{ref}
