This discussion is not really being very productive I think. I don't
understand why you want to do gas-phase calculations in the first place.
You should think carefully about the thermodynamic cycle you are trying to
apply.

"DELTA.charge" is the difference between the charge in the lambda = 0 state
and the lambda=1 state. If you have concerns, study the perturbed prmtop
file to make sure it is getting what you want. Run (short)
simulations with lambda=1, and compare the results to a "standard" prmtop
file that represents the lambda=1 (GLY) state.
