Dear Jac,

you obviously have loaded default force field parameters for RNA/DNA,
e.g. through something like "source like leaprc.ff14SB" which will pull
in all required parameters, again via additional files e.g.
nucleic12.lib. Essentially the charges in your mol2 file in the 9th
field are the charges from the OFF (lib) file you have loaded. So this
looks perfectly fine to me.

Cheers,
Hannes.
