Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate to drive the assembly of a protein or protein complex onto a DNA molecule. Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate to drive the opening of the ring structure of the PCNA complex, or any of the related sliding clamp complexes, and their closing around the DNA duplex. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any nucleic acid. Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate in the presence of single- or double-stranded DNA; drives another reaction.
