The nucleon strange and antistrange distribution asymmetry is an important issue in the study of the nucleon structure. In this work, we show that the heavy-quark recombination processes from a perturbative QCD picture can give a sizable influence on the measurement of the nucleon strangeness asymmetry from charged-current charm production processes, such as the CCFR and NuTeV dimuon measurements. When the influence of heavy-quark recombination is considered, a positive effective {delta}S{sub HR}{sup -} should be added to the initially extracted strangeness asymmetry S{sup -}{identical_to}{integral}dx[s(x)-s(x)]x, supporting the strangeness asymmetry S{sup -} being positive, which is helpful to explain the NuTeV anomaly within the framework of the standard model.
