Dear Sivaraman, 

it might be difficult if the DNA binding is an intrinsic property of your 
protein and important for the function. But you can try of course to degrade 
the DNA using DNAseI and hope that the resulting small pieces and nucleotides 
will not bind to your protein, I use sometimes streptomycine sulfate to 
precipitate the DNA  before the protein purification. If the protein is just 
soluble with DNA you could try also addional additive like Arg or more 
glycerol (10% is still O.K.) to prevent precipitation after the removal of the 
DNA. 
Good luck with your protein

Best regards 

Christian
