Something is wrong, but there is not enough information here to tell what
it is. When you say "it shows a total charge of -20", can you be more
explicit about exactly what output you are looking at? Look carefully through
your leap.log file to try to find anything that could be changing the charges.
Use ambpdb to generate a pdb file from your prmtop/prmcrd files, and make sure
you still have 20 phosphate groups, etc.
...good luck...dac
