Fumigation of both, cucurbit plants and cucurbit leaf homogenates with hydrogen sulfide (H_2S) resulted in an increase in soluble thiol, mainly glutathione and cysteine. In leaf homogenates this increase was counteracted or prevented by the addition at 1 mM of inhibitors of pyridoxalphosphate dependent enzymes or of products of the cysteine desulfhydrase reaction. These compounds inhibited cysteine desulfhydrase activity, but did not severely affect O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase activity at this concentration. These results provide circumstantial evidence that cysteine desulfhydrase in its reverse reaction, but not O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase participates in the assimilation of atmospheric H_2S.
