Protection from Green does not stop the Basilisk’s ability because the ability is not targeted.

The ability destroys the creature at the end of the combat, which is after all first strike and normal damage dealing is done. This means that a creature may have to regenerate twice to survive the combat, once from damage and once again at end of combat.
