Yes. All viruses are composed of a nucleic acid surrounded by a protein capsid. When the capsid is not present, the the infectious nucleic acid is called viroid. When the nucleic acid is not present, the infectious protein coating is called prion.
A virus is a package of nucleic acid wrapped in a protein coat that requires a host cell's machinery to replicate.
To specifically label the protein in an RNA virus, you would use a radioactive tracer that binds specifically to proteins, such as ^35S (sulfur-35). This tracer would only be incorporated into the protein coat of the virus during replication or assembly, allowing you to track and study the behavior of the viral protein without labeling the RNA core.
Every virus has genetic material (DNA or RNA) and a protein coat (capsid) that protects the genetic material.
A plasmid (loop) of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) and an assortment of enzymes and viral proteins.
A virus.Some viruses have double-stranded DNA, some have single-stranded. There are also viruses that carry their genetic information in RNA, some double-stranded, some single.
If a virus has one, yes, and it's often referred to as a "protein coat."

protein makes up the coat of a virus
Protein capsid.
Capsidecapsid
The protein coat surrounding the nucleic acid of a virus is called the capsid. These are broadly classified according to their structures. Helical (cylindrical) and icosahedral (spherical) are the most common types.
A virus is a microorganism that has a protein coat, also known as a capsid, which surrounds its genetic material. The protein coat helps protect the viral genome and assists in the virus' ability to infect host cells.
