How to access a div tag content using protractor

I'm currently working on creating a test which will be able to click a link which is in a div. The problem is my developer has changed some part of the UI and as a result my XPath locator is not working. Also using Xpath is not feasible as in future some UI might change and I wont be able to locate the element.

My div tag looks like this and I want to perform a click on the div tag.

<div class="link verticalCenter" ng-click="replaceLocation('login')">Sign in</div>

PS: I can't use css locator for it.

Please let me know how can I achieve this.

You still might use CSS, but with some special locator: element(by.cssContainingText('div', 'Sign in'))

Try to use relative XPath that will be still applicable after changes in DOM:

//div[text()="Sign in"]
