The word 'both' is not a noun. The word both is:

An adjective when followed by a noun: Both boys will start school today.

A pronoun that takes the place of two people or things: Both of us were invited.

A conjunction used to stress the inclusion of two things: The tour includes both Rome and Naples.

In this sentence, the word 'both' is used as a conjunction, used to stress the inclusion of two things specified.

When the word 'both' is placed before a noun (both boys, both shoes), both is functioning as an adjective.

When the word 'both' is taking the place of a plural noun or two nouns to indicate that the two are included (both of us; both of them, you may have both), two mentioned previously or two that are understood.
