The present invention relates generally to the fields of microbiology and biotechnology. More precisely, the present invention relates to isolated biologically pure hemiascomycetes yeast strain comprising unique combination of metabolic pathways for the catabolism or degradation of fatty acid and other substrates. The present invention also provides a method of increasing the production of commodity chemicals using the isolated biologically pure hemiascomycetes yeast strain. The present invention further provides novel mutants that can yield improved production of such commodity chemicals.
