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.

Where is a protein coat found and what is it used for?
A protein coat (capsid) is the protein shell of a virus. It surrounds the nucleic acid and is made up of sub units called capsomere. It is used as protection for the genetic material inside the shell and as reactant with the cell wall of a potential host cell allowing the transfer of genetic material into the host cell.
What is the protein coat that surounds a virus called?
The envelope.
