predicting 3D structure of protein from DNA sequence

Question

[Sara]

I have a sequence of DNA and would like to get the 3D structure of the protein which the result of translation of that. would you please let me know what the best tool is for this purpose?

[Martombo]

I assume you have cDNA that can be easily translated to protein sequence? If so, you can perform an analysis called homology modelling. Swiss-model is an example of a simple tool that can do that.
