Dear Kara,

As explained by Ross, you use either

set DG head DG.1.P

or

set DG head DG.1.1

if 'P' has the atom number '1'. The reason why this is useful is, because
sometimes you might have an atom name 'O3*', and when it is the 'tail'
part, it will not accept 'set DG tail DG.1.O3*'. So, using the atom number
works, too. You can check the head and tail atoms of your residue by
'check <RESNAME>'.

Best,
