I am using the POV-Ray for Windows v3.6 program. I used the
DeepView/Swiss-PdbViewer3.7 (SP5) to generate some 3D structural models.
This program has one option to SAVE in POV3.5 Scene format. Later, I do not
know what do with this POV file to generate a high quality image.

Thank,

Joan

You're half way there Joan.
Obviously you have downloaded and saved Helix.pov and Helix.inc and run 
Helix.pov - that's where you got the Helix.png?
If you examine these files you will notice that Helix.pov is really a 
template file and Helix.inc is a data file (your helix dodecapeptide model)
If you want to change things start by looking near the bottom of Helix.pov 
after
#include "Helix.inc"
This is where you can experiment with scale viewpoint lighting and so on.
Unfortunately the structure you have is just main chain atoms so it is not 
very interesting.
Could that possibly be a M3 transmembrane segment of Nicotinic Acetylcholine 
Receptor?
You are stuck with the color gradient unless you edit the texture lines in 
Helix.inc.
Good luck!
