Installing SMINA on Ubuntu (Linux).
SMINA is a fork of AutoDock Vina supporting better scoring function and high-performance energy minimization [1]. In this article, we are going to install SMINA on Ubuntu (Linux).
Preparing system
Let’s update and upgrade our system first.
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
Downloading SMINA
Download SMINA from here. Change to the directory where you have downloaded the file. Here, we have downloaded in ‘Downloads’. You will see a file named ‘smina.static‘

$ chmod +x smina.static
Now, you can run this file as shown below.
$ ./smina.static
It will display the usage.
