Energy minimization of protein

It's necessary to minimize energy for protein before docking (docking with autodock vina), and what to use for this, what software to use, I download protein PDB from rscb.org and then remove before ligands and water with discovery studio and then add polar hydrogen and kollman charges through autodock tools (convert to pdbqt file). I am asking if I need to minimize energy of protein, where do I need and what to use for this

software-error

I have the same question. I have modelled my protein using PHYRE2. Do I need to do energy minimisation before docking?
