在Linux上安装和使用免费版本的PyMol

技术背景

PyMol是一个类似于VMD的分子可视化工具,也是在PyQt的基础上开发的。但是由于其商业化运营,软件分为了教育版、开源版和商业版三个版本。其中教育版会有水印,商业版要收费,但是官方不提供开源版本的安装方法。按照参考链接1的内容,可以在Windows系统上面安装一个开源版本的PyMol,但是该发行版只有Windows平台的编译包。所以如果需要在Linux上安装PyMol,就只能在Github上面下载源码进行编译构建。

但是经过数番尝试,在编译过程中会遇到不少问题,尤其是在手动构建netcdf的时候,总是提示无法构建。在经过多个平台的检索之后,最终发现在Anaconda的库中有一个名为pymol-open-source的包,详情可见参考链接2。这个包就是PyMol的开源版本,但是网上几乎很难找到这个包的相关信息。它不仅仅是开源版,还几乎支持了全平台的使用,本文主要简单介绍一下这个包的安装和简单使用。

安装pymol-open-source

在本地的conda环境下,直接执行如下指令,即可自动完成安装:

$ conda install -c conda-forge pymol-open-source

Solving environment: done


==> WARNING: A newer version of conda exists. <==
  current version: 23.1.0
  latest version: 23.5.0

Please update conda by running

    $ conda update -n base -c defaults conda

Or to minimize the number of packages updated during conda update use

     conda install conda=23.5.0

安装完成后,直接在终端命令行窗口输入pymol即可打开PyMol的界面。我们可以点击File->Open来导入相关的分子构象输入文件,比如pdb文件等,如下所示是一个导入pdb文件后的效果图。

总结概要

这篇文章主要介绍在Linux平台下安装开源版PyMol的简单方法。由于官方主要提供商业版的安装方法,而提供whl安装包的平台也只有Windows系统下的编译包。其实在Anaconda的库中是有提供pymol的开源版本的,这里借这篇文章顺便推广一下。
