TLDR
Ex vivo endogenous H2S physiologically modifies cysteine residues in many proteins, including glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and actin, converting Cysteine -SH groups to -SSH groups in a process the authors call S-sulfhydration.Abstract:
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a messenger molecule generated by cystathionine gamma-lyase, acts as a physiologic vasorelaxant. Mechanisms whereby H2S signals have been elusive. We now show that H2S physiologically modifies cysteines in a large number of proteins by S-sulfhydration. About 10 to 25% of many liver proteins, including actin, tubulin, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), are sulfhydrated under physiological conditions. Sulfhydration augments GAPDH activity and enhances actin polymerization. Sulfhydration thus appears to be a physiologic posttranslational modification for proteins.read more

The role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in Ghrelin secretion and appetite
TL;DR: H2S has a suppressive effect on ghrelin secretion and appetite, as demonstrated by treating rat primary stomach culture with the H2S donor molecule GYY4137 or H1N1 synthesis inhibitor PPG.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rhodanese RDL2 Uses the Arg Residue of the Active-Site Loop for Thiosulfate Decomposition.
TL;DR: In this paper, a resolution structure of RDL2 co-crystallized with thiosulfate was reported, and the presence of an extra sulfur atom Sδ, forming a persulfide bond with the Sγ atom of Cys106, was observed.

H2S as a Physiologic Vasorelaxant: Hypertension in Mice with Deletion of Cystathionine γ-Lyase
Guangdong Yang,Guangdong Yang,Lingyun Wu,Bo Jiang,Wei Yang,Jiansong Qi,Kun Cao,Qinghe Meng,Asif K. Mustafa,Weitong Mu,Shengming Zhang,Solomon H. Snyder,Rui Wang,Rui Wang +13 more
TL;DR: It is shown that H2S is physiologically generated by cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) and that genetic deletion of this enzyme in mice markedly reduces H 2S levels in the serum, heart, aorta, and other tissues.

The vasorelaxant effect of H2S as a novel endogenous gaseous KATP channel opener
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that H2S is an important endogenous vasoactive factor and the first identified gaseous opener of KATP channels in vascular SMCs and production from vascular tissues was enhanced by nitric oxide.
