Core Tip	The present study proposes that the stability of mutant liver X receptor-α (LXR-α) protein in blood mononuclear cells of human coronary heart disease (CHD) subjects is governed by its ubiquitination dependent degradation by [breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility 1 (BRCA1)-associated RING domain1 (BARD1)]/BRCA1 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Additionally, BARD1/BRCA1 expression shows an increasing trend with respect to severity of coronary occlusion. This degradation is rescued to some extent by the ability of Vitamin D3 to bind mutant LXR-α protein thus providing warranted evidence that dietary supplementation of Vitamin D3 in such subjects may be exploited therapeutically.
