The disease is caused by mutations in the GBA gene. The GBA gene codes for production of beta-glucocerebrosidase, an enzyme stored in lysosomes that breaks down and glucocerebroside, a lipid that makes up part of cell membranes.
Hereâs the kicker: Researchers have found that whole watermelons stored outside the fridge in a cool, dark place (around 55 or 60 degrees) last much longer than watermelons stored in the fridge (around 41 degrees). So, if youâve already got a whole watermelon in the fridge, you should keep it there. But if youâre storing it outside the fridge, put it in the fridge about three hours before you plan to eat it in order to cool it down to just the right temperature.
I bought a watermelon about 3 to 4 weeks ago. It has sat in my pantry uncut since then. I usually keep my house around 70 to 72 degrees. Although my pantry is dark it is above the 50-59Â° temperature recommended.irst of all, thereâs no such thing as âtoo much watermelon.â Second, there are so many things you can do with those leftovers, but thatâs a subject for another day. To answer your question, if the watermelon has already been cut, it should be okay in the fridge for 3 or 4 days.
