Hemagglutinin (HA) or haemagglutinin (BE) is an antigenic glycoprotein found on the surface of the influenza viruses (as well as many other bacteria and viruses). It is responsible for binding the virus to the cell that is being infected. The name "hemagglutinin" comes from the protein's ability to cause red blood cells (erythrocytes) to clump together ("agglutinate") in vitro [1]. http://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Hemagglutinin

Swine Flu is recognized by the symbols h1n1. H stands for hemagglutinin and N stands for neuraminidase. I believe the numbers have to due with the structures of these proteins that compromise this particular strain.
Do all flu viruses have H N?

What is the full form of H1N1 virus?
The H and N stand for the two proteins on the capsid (coat) of the virion that causes this influenza. The H stands for Hemagglutinin, and the N stands for Nueraminidase. The numbers in the names of flu viruses refer to the configuration of these proteins. See the related questions below for more details.
