Abstract
► Bottlenecks to vibrational relaxation in protein chromophores identified. ► Bottlenecks to energy flow give rise to underdamped low-frequency oscillations. ► Damping rates of protein modes are shown to be independent of protein size. ► Size of molecule where bottlenecks to energy flow appear is determined.
