Dear Ashwini,
in general the total charge of a molecular fragment has an integer
charge value although in some cases this is not true (see some GYCAM
units as well as the 3' & 5'-terminal fragments of nucleotides).
I would carefully check the charge derivation procedure and the
constraints used during the fit to generate the molecular fragment.
