In a genome the set of proteins are formed by duplication and combination of domain superfamilies. P-loop containing nucleotide triphosphate （NTP） hydrolases superfamily is massively duplicated and has the most different partner superfamilies among archaea, bacteria and eukarya, Here, we study the distributions of duplication and combination of p-loop containing NTP hydrolases superfamily in 169 completed genomes. When the total number of domains in a genome is larger, duplication and combination partners of p-loop conraining NTP hydrolases are more. This phenomenon is more obvious in metazoa. The distributions of abundance and corn bination of partners relate to the functions of the protein. Those distributions in metazoa are very different from those in other kingdoms because of complexity of metazoa. Finally the relationship between duplication and combination of p-loop containing NTP hydrolases superfamily in different genomes is described. It fits a power law.
