These are all fine points. However, the question I'm asking is why do
Gromacs tools change atoms named OXT in PDB files to O2? Of course
there are always workarounds i.e. just simply change the atom name in
the coordinate file. However, I was wondering if anyone knew why this
happened. I suppose I will submit a bugzilla.

Hi,
I think that the terminal oxygen atoms should not be named OXT for the
amber forcefields but rather OC1 and OC2. To check this look in the top
folder at the ffamberXX.rtp file.
Hope this helps
