Antonio,
	I think what you are looking for is homology modelling. You'd 
need a pretty powerful computer to do this sort of work. However I 
suggest the easy approach and connect to the swiss-prot database at:
	
	http://expasy.hcuge.ch/

There you should find a swiss-model option which will do the modelling 
for you. The results will be sent to you via e-mail. I suugest you read 
their information pages first and take the structure you recieve with a 
pinch of salt. Snail-mail me if you need any more help

			Good luck
			Simon
