Protecting a cell in excel

[prathap_thoppil]

Hello,

I have the following excel format in my common office folder which is accessed by number of staff. The column highlighted in red contains conditional formatting and i would like to lock the particular cell and should be controlled by myself only. Can anyone find me a way for this? This sheet is been accessed several times in day and the protection should be always on in the sheet.
