Conditional formatting based on string values in another column

$

In Google Sheet I would like to highlight in red the cells in a column "Y" if another column, say column "X", contains certain abbreviation (string variable). Column "X" cells can have only one abbreviation, i.e. "BBL", "BBS", "BVV" or "BBD". So my goal is that each time we see "BBL" or "BVV" in "X" to have red colour in "Y". Additional issue may be that "Y" is a data validated field, and valuse that can be chosen there do not depend on column "X", but I assume that colouring of cells with conditional formatting does not interact with data validation.
