Seems like pdb2pqr has issues with terminal histidines.
While it does protonate the histidine correctly removing the HE2 atom it does not rename it to HID. Instead it keeps it as HIS which causes issues in teLeap since AMBER does not like HIS residues with a HD1 atom. The rest of non-terminal histidines are correctly renamed.
